Presario 3055CA, XP *PRO* and wireless -- possible?
Hey kids:
When I got my laptop, I immediately upgraded to XP Pro. I cannot get the Broadcom wireless NIC to enable the radio. Compaq won't help me because they only support XP Home, and apparently the GUI is quite different for networking. Has anybody "out there" enabled their NIC? How?! Thanks; Duncan ============== Posted through www.HowToFixComputers.com/bb - free access to hardware troubleshooting newsgroups. |

After upgrading, I would reinstall the drivers for the card. Also, try
reaplying the " System Default Settings" from the CD or from the support website. Maxx ThatGuyDuncan wrote: || Hey kids: || || When I got my laptop, I immediately upgraded to XP Pro.
