ok the laptop is a hp pavilion running windows xp...i just got wireless today and they said it should be no problem setting up another computer but i had problems before with this laptop...it just will not connect to a wireless connection and it doesn't
really say why....my dell has no problem....i think its something to do with the xp laptop but i dont know where to go or look to maybe change some settings or whatever

O.K,. and you've already read the short article I cited above so you've already made sure the HP Pavillion's network adapter is turned on? When you look at the Pavillion do you see the list of available wireless networks and is your network listed?
Will it connect to ANY wireless networks or is the problem limited to yours?
Have you installed the latest wireless drivers for it? (you'll want to download those from HP)-B-
