Cannot Connect to the Wireless Network

My wireless network on my XP was slow. So I removed all the network driver
components for the adapter. Now I try to enable the adapter, and get the
error :

Connecting to the Wireless Network : Cannot connect

I tried to reinstall using my Linksys CD, and it says all the drivers are
already installed.

How can I get my XP wireless drivers back?

You may try to delete the wireless from the devices manager and restart the
computer and then re-install it.

Hi
Some Wireless Card's manufacturers attach the Drivers to their Wireless
Utilities.
If one does not want to use/have the Utilities, the way to overcome it is to
find the Drivers for the cards chipset on the OEM's Support site, and use
them instead of the CD.

Yes, I had to reenter my WEP key for the network, and now it works.
