Default No network in range


I recently reformatted my hard drive. My wireless connection worked
perfectly fine before, but since reformatting, i can not even pick up a
signal. I have reinstalled the drivers several times, but still nothing.
Anyone know why this is happening?

Maybe try OIDScope ( now rawether ) from

to query OID_802_11_RSSI

Hi

Uninstall the Wireless Card drivers.

If you Wireless client is Internal switch it off, if it is external take it
out.

Boot the computer one time without the Wireless Card, and check the device
manager for "Ghosts", http://www.ezlan.net/faq#ghost

Boot again and install the drivers (make sure that you have the most recent
drivers as appears on the Wireless Card manufacturer site).

Ok, so you reformatted and rebuilt your machine afresh. Assuming you
installed Windows XP, did you install XP Service Pack 2 and upgrade your
drivers after the rebuild. Please check the following article and see if
following the steps resolves your issue:
