Happy Friday everyone!!

I am having problems with a recently reformatted Gateway laptop. Was having
minor issues with the computer that I could not resolve so I decided to
reformat using the factory supplied disk. The initial problems have been
eliminated, but now the Wireless connection won't connect! I have two other
computers, one used as the "server/main" computer and the other connected
through a small home network. These are both desktop computers and are
connected together through a Netgear router; both are working and accessing
the internet just fine. However, the laptop refuses to connect to the
network (as it had done pre-reformat). I have tried to release/renew the IP
Address, uninstall the driver and reboot the computer to reinstall the
driver, boot off ALL hardware on ALL computers, then restart everything, all
to no avail. The 'main' computer can see the laptop, but in the comments
section shows "unknown computer". I have also tried to run the Network Set
Up wizard on both the "main" computer and the laptop, again no success. Any
suggestions??

Thanks in advance!!
Nancy
