I’ve already set up everything. I installed Windows XP on a separate partition from Windows 7. However Windows 7 can recognize my router and internet access fine. Though, XP cannot.
Thank you for reading this. I appreciate all insight, feedback, advice, experience or anything at all.
I have a desktop which is hardwired, running windows XP, and a wireless laptop running windows Vista. I want to set up a wireless network so that I can access my desktop files using my laptop. Eventually, I would like my desktop to be wireless as well. Any suggestions for keeping this going when I have to disconnect my computer from the router?
BTW, I am using AT&T, so they have their own modem/router.
I recently bought a DIR-301 D-link wireless router and it installed perfectly on my downstairs computer. It came with a DWA-111 wireless adapter which I have tried to install on my windows XP in my bedroom but it keeps telling me that the installation failed and tells me that files are either missing or corrupt. My computer also fails to recognise the tech being installed.
The computer I installed the router on was also a windows XP and as I said, it works perfectly.
I have tried installing and uninstalling and rebooting the computer but it doesn’t seem to work and I have searched the web and it seems lots of people are having the exact same difficulty with the adapter.
It would be great if someone could give me any suggestions?
Thanks 
I would also like to point out, before anyone decides to state the obvious, I did contact D-link support and they just advised to install and uninstall and reboot comp.
( Basically their help was useless )
I know that it is the computer rather than the adapter that’s the problem:
I tried it on the pc downstairs and it worked.
Yeah it is SP2.

I have a computer that needs to be updated but it doesn’t have internet access and I don’t want to buy the program disc. My computer is a Dell with Windows XP Home Edition and I want to put the service pack 3 on it.
I’m trying to bridge my wireless broadband and my xbox, but whenever I click Bridge, it comes up with this:
To create a Network Bridge, you must select at least two LAN or High-Speed Internet Connections that are not being used by Internet Connection Sharing.
