Inbuilt wireless card

Hi,

I'm having a bit of a problem trying to get my laptop to pick up the signal
from my wireless router. I recently reinstalled Windows XP Home, and there is
no Wireless Network Connection icon in my Network Connections control panel.
I know I must have an inbuilt wireless card, as I have never had to use a
separate one before. Does anyone know a way I can get the system to recognise
the inbuilt card? My wireless access was functioning perfectly before I had
to reformat my computer.

Many thanks,
Stephen
