I have just had to reinstall windows xp pro for the first time and am
now trying to set up the wireless networking facility again. When I
try to use the network wizard, when I click finish it says that there
is a problem and that it cannot properly configure the network. I've
tried running the diagnostic tools and using this have scanned my
computer. This comes up with a number of failed messages saying "WMI
error". These occur on
Internet Explorer (unable to connect to
WMI namespace "netdiagnostics")
Modems (unable to connect....
"win32_potsmodem")
Network Adaptor unable to connect ...
"win32_networkadaptor configuration")
Network clients (unable to connect
..."win32_networkclient")
I thought I had installed all the drivers I needed but maybe this is
the problem . I don't know how to tell what drivers I need for what
hardware.
Also when I check in Device Manager there is a big yellow question
mark by other devices with further question marks under this for:
ATM network controller
Base system device
PCI simple communications controller
Again this makes me think that it might be to do with some drivers
that I might be missing.
Any help or advice would be hugely appreciated.
All the best
