My niece reformated her gate MX6440 Laptop and now cannot connect to the
internet using wireless network , she says she does not see the device in
device manager . The disk she has (only 1 disk)is MS win XP home Edition
OP system disc. Small print it says MS WIn XP Home GTWOS V1.3 R1

Larry... reformatting is almost always a bad idea. I wish people who do
would listen. And if you are going to do it anyway. Get something like

It's a done deal. Except for a few drivers and programs it runs a lot
