i recently installed vista build 5384. I can not connect to my wireless
network. on the system tray it shows the network icon with an "x" when i
mouse over it says "wireless networks available" but nothing is in the
connect to list. i installed new drivers and the Device manager shows it
working properly as a network adapter. i know my wireless network is working
properly. (tested it on another comp) when i try manualy seting it up it trys
to connect then it says it failed. i am using wep and i entered the corect
key. any help would be very helpfull.

P.s. I noticed that if i go to the mobility center under wireless network
it states "no adapters found" even though the network
