Hi,All,
DELL Latitude CPX Laptop with XP Pro +SP2 . it worked fine until the university changes its wireless setting. I followed the instruction ( I am using a USB wireless adaptor), it works in and out. finally someone in the campus tech support did something to my labtop and it starts to work for a week. then die for ever-- cann't connedted. now, even I try to use WIRED internet, it shows the computer keeps trying to acquire IP address then failed finally,which says it hs limited or no connection. I removed the wireless adaptor program and rsinstalled XP Pro in the "repair" mode. but it still shows the same problem.
so anyone could feed me some idea: what is wrong?
by the way, the instruction for the wireless setting from the university is here:

to uninstalling your wireless adaptor/ethernetcard.. Check for new drivers. Install it once, and dont overwrite it.
