I cleared the hard drive of my macbook, and inserted the install disk. Now it won’t reboot. Any advice?

Windows networking: how to display access points and other computers on the network

NetworkingATE — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 17:19:08 +0000

I have a wireless LAN at home but am confused about how to display access points and other computers on the network. I use an iMAC, a PC with XP, and a Netgear wireless router. I don’t use any wired connections.

What/how should I be able to see of this network from the XP machine? Why does Windows say it cannot show wireless networks? I’m using a package that came with Netgear to scan for access points, but why is Windows unwilling to be involved? Should I try to reconfigure using Windows? (My experience configuring networking stuff is nearly all unpleasant. The iMac configured itself without prompting … I like that!)

In other words, I need a Dummy level explanation of how Windows networking works.
