Connecting to wireless internet

My Dell laptop recently crashed and an error message appeared- i was advised
to re-install windows. However ,now that i have re-installed it, i cannot
seem to connect to the wireless internet connection that is set up on my home
computer. It seems as if my laptop cannot find any connections nearby-it did
cross my mind that I may have to install some software but i'm not sure and I
would be very grateful if anybody had any ideas. Thank you

Hi
In all likely hood WinXP does not have the Wireless card drivers and they
need to be installed idependendly.

Hi
Sorry my Hosting service moved the site to another server and all Bookmarks
need to be corrected.
