    Hi don't know if this is the right forum but I recently had a few virus' on this pc and I removed them but I think it's after deleting drivers for the wireless and ethernet. I tried to reinstall 'intel wireless pro 2200bg and it says it's installed but nothing changes. Please can someone help me :(

    More than likely the virus has corrupted the TCP / IP stack.
    you can try reseting it. Details here

    If that doesnt work you cold try the SFC command.

    Put your windows cd into the drive
    Click Start then Run and type "CMD" without quotes then click Enter.
    At the command prompt type "sfc /scannow" without quotes and click Enter.

    If that doesn't work then I'd try a repair installation. Link

    What exactly are the symptoms? What is wrong? Does your network card show up normally? We need more information

    Basically theres a wireless button beside the power button that if you'd normally press would turn blue and would turn on the wireless...but wireless can't be turned on from anywhere nor can I use a wired connection..I went to device manager and it came up about a corrupted or missing driver code 39 for:

    intel pro wireless 2200bg network connection,
    intel pro wireless 2200bg network connection packet scheduler
    1394 net adapter
    direct parallel, realtek rtl8139 family pci fast ethernet nic
    realtek rtl8139 family pci fast ethernet nic packet scheduler miniport,
    wan miniport(IP)
    wan miniport(IP) - packet scheduler miniport
    wan minport(L2TP)
    wan miniport(PPPOE)
    wan miniport(PPTP)

    they all had a yellow mark next to them too

    Have you tried removing all these and then re installing.

    If multiple apapters are not wokring then theres something seriously wrong with the OS.
    I've seen it loads of times after a malware infection.

    Sorry if I have missed it but what operating system do you have?
    Would you consider upgrading it to windows 7?
