Getting on a WPA network

Hi,

My Dell laptop used to connect to the wireless box at work no problem.
I had to start with a new disk some months ago since the old one failed.
I reinstalled Windows with my Dell recovery cd and off I went..

Since then my machine refuses to recognise WPA level security, even
though I have service pack 2 and have installed MS updates for wireless
networking and WPA/2 security.

I literally have no other ideas how to get the computer to recognise
this security and get on WPA networks. Has anyone got any ideas? I've
got another wireless card I can use but I think the problem is in
Windows..
