Problems downgrading E6400 to XP PRO

Installed a fresh xp pro and seem to have everything working except WLAN. Worked fine in vista. I've tried installing several drivers from the dell support site but it's the only driver giving me an error.

Been stuck for a while and been searching everywhere. Any suggestions?

 

Which WLAN card do you have? You can download Intel drivers directly from Intel.

 

I tried. Downloaded their hardware checker and it couldn't find the card. I'm thinking the card is not showing up at all and that's why the dell xp driver won't install. It was also saying hardware not found I think but in device manager I see the network controller with a conflict yellow question mark. I can use the Ethernet fine.

 

Did you make sure the switch on the side of the laptop was set to on for wireless? Make sure WLAN is enabled in BIOS.
I just downgraded my 6400 and everything installed fine with drivers from Dell website.

 

Which WLAN card do you have? Is it one of the Dell's or one of the Intel's?

 

what you can do is go to dell's support page
enter you service tag
enter the OS that you want to download
it will show you a list of drivers needed on the OS that is mention on the service tag hardware
