Internet Won't Connect
 
I have a Belkin Wireless G Internet Card in my Compaq PC running Windows XP and I can't get it to connect to our SKY internet. When you open the Belkin icon it's says that the signal strength is strong but when you click connect it does nothing. If anybody knows what I'm doing wrong please let me know. BTW our Acer laptop on Windows 7 connects everytime without fail.

Do you just swap your sky box for that one?

I got it sorted, it turned out that service pack needed updated.
