Today, I was trying to use wireless network connection on the Compaq Presario V2030US laptop. It didn't work initially. The wireless button didn't light up when I pressed it.
In device manager, the network adapter Intel (R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection is listed with a red cross on the icon. I tried to update the driver automatically and it appears to install some files from the system folder. In the end, it says the driver is not compatible with the platform. I'm guessing it's because the driver comes with the original installation is for XP Home and now the OS is XP Professional. Maybe there's some incompatibility.
So I went to find the driver for the wireless adapter online and installed it. It works now. :)
