Wireless connection not working after system board replaced

[caramelboy586]

I have Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection on my computer.
My laptop was sent in for repair and the system board was replaced.
Removing the network connection driver from Device Manager and scanning
for new hardware installs the drivers for Intel® PRO/Wireless 2200BG
Network Connection, so I know that they replaced the system board with
an identical one.

However, my wireless connection is no longer working. I definitely have
a wireless network in my building (my roommates are on it all the
time), but nothing is being detected by my computer (using XP's Choose
a Wireless Network screen).

I've reinstalled the drivers, but this has done nothing. Any ideas?

The wireless card is separate from the motherboard, so it is probably the
same one.

Do you know if you are using the Windows wireless configuration utility, or
the ProSet manager? If you can't get the WZC to work, you might try turning
if off and using the ProSet manager.

You did not say which computer you have, but Intel has drivers for the card
on their website which you might try if you can't get yours to work.

If you have an Eacfilt Driver listed in the bindings area, you might try
unchecking that. Have you checked and made sure you don't have the card set
to only connect to certain type connections, like profiles only, or b or g
only?

I have a new card ordered, so by Wednesday, I may have a better idea of what
you need.

I forgot to mention, to make sure you have the radio on. Just to cover more
bases .
