Wireless Configuration

My mom's computer used to have no problems connecting to the internet
wirelessly, but about a month or so ago I updated her computer with the
updates it said it needed. Since then network connections says windows
cannot configure wireless connection. I disable WZC and still it cannot
connect to the internet.

Any help on how to fix this will be greatly appreciated. She is running
Windows xp sp2

Hi
Disabling WZC is an option only if there is another utility managing the
Wireless, other wise it is needed.
Check the Network configuration to make sure that the Card and Windows
Networking is configured correctly.

How do I know if everything is configured properly? And the wireless network
connection says that if another program is controlling the wireless
connection to disasble it but no other program is set to control wireless
networking. i have gone through a few troubleshooting things but they have
not helped.

Hi
Usually the manfefacturer Wireless manger is loaded at startup.
Read the manual, may be there is an explanation of the process there.
Otherwise, you can use this two utilities (Startup & Process Explorer to see
what runs at Startup and keep running there after.

It can be tricky since some manufactures load the Utility with the Drivers
and it is hard to separate the two, in such case it would be a good idea to
call the Wireless Card's Tech Support.

For some reason I could not download those programs on the website and I have
already run a selective startup, fixing one problem on her computer, but not
the internet. All this mess started when I ran a windows update and it
updated norton. The version she has is a bad one apparently and with the
update, listed under symantec, things got worse. we have been trying
different troublshooting for at least 2 months to fix it including system
restore but nothing is working. any other advice for us to try?

I ended up having to backup every file and setting and program and reset the
computer to factory settings. I did end up getting the spyware and other
programs downloaded and they seem to be helping-I know this is not what you
want to do but it is what I had to do

Thanks, I'm waiting a Symantec solution, because I think when I uuinstaled
Norton It deleted some needed driver. But reinstal all original software is a
sure solution. THANKS
