Reinstall the drivers for the network card.

ok i reinstalled the drivers and it asked me to restart the computer and everything seemed fine but upon opening my control panel the computer froze and further attempts have led it to freeze upon the xp loading screen

Have you tried repairing the connection from Network connections or Device Manager?

jeremiahyou · 06-21-2009, 04:53 PM

i have tried yet

Can you boot into safe mode?

jeremiahyou · 07-02-2009, 10:31 AM

I can log into safe mode regular but not with networking/commands

Do you get an error or does it freeze again?

did you try to install any software or application?

you can try the following:-

1)restart the computer in safe mode with networking

2)restart the computer and press F8
you will get the advance option

3)select safe mode with networking and try

connect to your wireless network.

4)if you are able to go online you can uninstall any
program you have installed and try to go online wireless in normal
mode.

you can also restore you computer to previous date when the computer was working fine

make sure you disable all the security software, if you have a cd you can uninstall the security software and try going online.

can also remove all startup items bu going to
start->msconfig->click on startup->disable all and restarted the computer.

should be able to go online.
