    About a month or so, I finally replacement my hard drive, because it crashed. I reinstalled windows and had to logon with a wired connection to do all the xp sp2/3 updates and so and so worth. Even before that when I go into Network connections Wireless is not showing up. I have checked under device manager | Network adapaters and everything is okay there, I do I need to purchase a wireless card?

    Thanks
