Hey guys,
               I did all my homework when wiping vista from my toshiba satellite P105-S6177 and installing XP I got everything restored except my Wifi by following this thread:       

There is little mention of how to get the wifi going again....Im just stuck with the last yellow question mark "network controller" and cannot get anything to change it.

The easy wep crack hardware installed on this machine is: Atheros AR5006EG how to crack wep Adapter

I tryed everything from that thread including try to force older drivers to take but came up with nothing.....Anyone know how to get my laptop to atleast see that this is an atheros?   I cant even get that far.   I tryed the hack wep key lan setup utility and it says it cant find any hardware installed on my machine.


I tryed the pack on that thread also and it didnt work out for me....I did that at the start of this,when that didnt work I started going step by step fixing everything and this is the very end of it...everything works...audio....everything!...So now im just left with the lone ranger question mark in the device manager and no wifi. 

Sad part is....This is the most urgent thing I needed to fix....I could have cared less about the audio....but I fixed it just to fix it.


That thread was a real life saver though...I also wanted to thank everyone who took the time to contribute to it, I found it before I wiped vista off here and it was the nail in the coffen....that thread made me believe I could do it.

Help?   Anyone?
