Im on a Dell Inspiron 2200 and trying to use a Netgear wg511t card that i used on my previous laptop which used xp. I have installed the drivers, Windows 7 says its connected to the internet, but launching the browser tells a different tale. Can this issue be resolved?

Well what is the tale that Windows 7 tells that differs from XP? We need more information.

I suggest that you install the latest driver for Windows Vista. It can be downloaded from the following website.
