Wireless network problem
Ok here's the story:
I've got 2 pc's here, one of them is already succesfully connected to my wireless network.
The other one can't seem to do that..
It has a Conceptronic 54g wireless pci card built in.
It does see the network but it can't connect to it somehow..
I've tried to install the wireless card from my other pc in the problem pc and then it works flawless..
So the problem can't be the pc right?
So does anyone know what could be the problem?

so the new card does not work in any of your PC's - correct
but the OLd card works in both PC's - correct
I assume you have installed the driver for the new card

sounds like the new card is faulty
dont understand the built in comment though if post #4 is correct
try this using old card
to access the net
Free software to check signal strength of wireless is netstumbler 0.4.0 available for download from http://www.stumbler.net/
run and see it work on old card - then see what happens with the new card
also post details from device manager
start>
control panel>
system>
hardware tab>
device manager button>
network adapters
click on the + sign
post backs whats there

im still confused
is the wireless built in or on a card
is the wireless built in or on a card
maybe try disable and then re-enable
also before that

maybe remove the device physically and uninstall all the wireless PCI cards you have in the device manager
then re-install physically and reload driver for it
and then re-install
also before that

as you only have one wireless device in device manager - just uninstall that onemaybe remove the device physically and uninstall all the wireless PCI cards you have in the device manager
then re-install physically and reload driver for it
and then re-install
otherwise I guess its a faulty card - which I sort of thought maybe the case in post one of the 2st posts when you said it does not work in two PC's but an old card does work in both

may be the windows and the card software are having problems are you using WZC or the card utility to manage the wireless
it may be worth trying each one on its own - i know with the intel theres a conflict with these
