    This is my 1st time here so, hello nice to meet you all.

    I have a corega wireless adapter that is plugged into my pc as an access point for my PSP and DS but I keep getting the problem of "DHCP is not enabled for wireless networking" and it says the wireless adapter doesn't have a valid IP address.
    In services the DHCP is set to started.

    here are the results of the ipconfig/all

    ========================================================================

    I've also set the Internet Protocol to Obtain an IP address automatically and Obtain DNS server address automatically but this still doesn't solve the problem.

    I'm running windows 7

    I hope someone can help me please

    Did you set up the connection as an Ad-Hoc network and enable Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)?
