Vista Problem - Cannnot connect to wireless service

[xhale2007]

Hi guys,

I Am having a problem with my laptop. I am running windows vista.

Yesterday, i switched my laptop off, after browsing for an hour or so.

Turned it on today, and found no internet connection. I tried to connect to it, and got the error, unable to connect to windows wireless service. So i clicked repair, and got a fail.

I have searched on google, and the only posts i can find are all this time last year. I have tried doing the REGEDIT and changing "start" to 2 from what i had of 3. That did not cure.

I have been into services and checked wlan and all its dependancies are set to automatic and started. All will start expect WLAN.

Hope someone can help me out, as i do not really want to re install windows, as i have lost my key

Thanks Guys!

did you click on the network icon on the taskbar and selected diagnose and repair?have you applied sp1 and all current updates?have you tried updating your wireless card drivers?also have you changed any of vista's services and or turned off any features?
