HI

I'm new to this. I have a dell d600 on xp pro. I have downloaded the wireless driver from the dell site.

This worked and i was able to surf the web. The problem im having is that when i restart the laptop the wireless icon keeps dissapearing and does not show on network connections. Also when looking on device manager there is a qustion mark under network adaptors

Can anyone help pls???????????

extra info: (dell truemobile 1400 dual band WLAN mini-PCI Card)

Usually, drivers either install or they don't.

Did you install this while logged on as an admin?

Usually, unbless you have added hardware yourself, the best way to get the correct drivers from Dell is to go to their site and enter your Service Tag number.
