    Sony Vaio PCG-K33. I did an XP Home fresh install. Everything works fine except the internal wireless card. It is an Atheros LAN-Express AS IEEE card that shows up in the device manager as an Ethernet Controller with the yellow question mark. It says there is no driver so I have downloaded the driver from the Sony site but still doesn't work. The wireless switch is on. Any help? NO problem with ethernet connection at all.

    And, yes, I know now I should have made a recovery disc.
