Solve : issue installing laptop network card?

Answer»

Hi folks,

I am experiencing problems installing a network card into my daughters laptop.

The Laptop is a Hi Grade Notino 3400 running WINDOWS ME the card is a Belkin Wireless G Notebook network card. I chose this card as it says that it is compatible with Windows ME.

I have followed the installation instructions installing the software first then installing the card at the prompt to do so. The Laptop then needs a restart to complete.

When restarting a message comes up saying that the Belkin network card is not installed properly and sure enough when restart is complete it does not work.

The card appears in DEVICE MANAGER with a yellow exclamation mark. I have ATTEMPTED to update the driver in device manager and I have uninstalled and reinstalled so many times that I have lost count.

I have tried the card in a friends machine so I know that the card itself is not faulty. Does anyone have any ideas, anything at all that I can try.

Thanks Guys

Is TCP/IP installed? Is Microsoft client for networks installed? Have you tried the internet connection wizzard?Thanks for the REPLY,

Yes the items you mentioned are installed.

I have previously had no problem using this laptop on a wired network through the same router that I want to access now without wires and also prior to this I had no problem connecting to the internet through the laptops modem.
