Virgin Wireless/ Netgear Router problem

[geejay00]

I currently connect to the internet through a wireless network set up in my home on here are three computer (two laptops and a PC) up until two days ago the PC had been connecting fine and now won't connect. The Virgin media connection software says the problem is occuring between my PC and the router and continues to prompt me to put in the correct password which i do to no avail. The signal strength on the virginmedia software says very low on the windows connection status it says high but comes up as limited or no connectivity.

I've checked the device manager and there appears to be no problems with my wireless adapter.

Whilst attempting to disable and enable the network adapter my computer restarted itself and on one occasion a blue screen error message came up, IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL.

Below is some info request on a similar topic on here
