I know a lot of you are having problems with this and trying to talk to tech support, which isn't really support to begin with. Just a tip, contact the people who made the device as your notebook companies don't make the drivers! Anyways here is my Fix to the problem and I had no problems so far!

Step 1)
http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scri...ProductID=1637
Go there and download the latest driver for the Wirless 2200BG.
Step 2)
Click on Start>Control Panel
Switch to Classic view
Double click on Add/Remove Programs
Step 3)
Find the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Program.
Uninstall
Step 4)
Close Add/Remove Programs
Double Click on System
Click on the Hardware Tab
Click on Device Manager
Step 5)
Locate Network Adapters and expand the list
Right Click on Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection>Uninstall
Step 6)
Now all instances of this program is uninstalled!
Close Device Manager
Close System
Step 7)
Minimize Control Panel Screen
Run the .exe you downloaded from the website. This will extract the contents to an Intel folder.
DO NOT INSTALL
Maximize Control Panel Screen again.
Step 8)
Double Click on Add New Hardware
It will locate the Integrated Wireless Card and warn you that you should install using the install disk rather than using windows.
CONTINUE ANYWAYS!
Step 9)
It will ask youu to connect to the internet for help. Screw that, click No.
Then you will have two boxes: One - Let Windows Search for the Correct Driver. Two - Let you find the driver yourself.
Click on Let me find the driver.
Click on the Advance button and where you can type in the directory for windows to search copy and paste this:
C:\Intel\wireless 9.0.1.0 - generic TIC 90281\Drivers
Step 10)
Click Next and it will INSTALL!
Now you won't have the nice interface that Intel provided you with, and you will have to use the Microsoft Wireless Connection Finder instead. I don't know about you, but I don't want a PMCII(?) card as I'd rather have it internal and connect a Sound Blaster ZS 2 in that slot. Have fun! NO MORE LOCK UPS AND BLACK SCREENS!
I believe this is Pin Worthy
