So I am guessing it works now?. All you had to do was install Service pack 2

You installed a copy of XP without SP2?

My iso has all of the current updates through SP3 on it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

All of the Service Packs include the previous fix releases. SP1 includes all fixes before it. SP2 includes SP1 and fixes after it. SP3 includes SP2, SP1, and all fixes after SP2. If you would have installed the latest SP this would have never happened.

This is why before I do anything with a fresh install I do all of the current updates //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

That and install chrome, malwarebytes, and office, amongst other things

I'm aware, but like i said i've used this XP disc with SP2 on it for many installs, including 2 just a few weeks ago and didnt have any wireless issues or anything. this is the first and only laptop i've had this issue with, so thats why i was like wtf.

That doesnt always work. I ran into problems before with program compadability with older programs vs newer versions and exicutable files. I started making a list of what versions work with what program now. I forget which ones, but some have to go to program storage vaults to find.
