No icons In Network Connections

[Guest Martyn]

I have XP home edition.

I want to make a wireless connection - when I open Network Connections from

the control panel there is nothing there.

The folder is blank.

I am assuming something has been deleted and wonder if anyone knows how it

can be restored.

The 802.11 adaptor for the connection is showing in the Device manager.

But I cannot make the connection as the Network connection folder is blank

Thanks if anyone can help

Have you made any changes to the Services start modes ? Like in a

guide such as Black Viper's ? Normally, whenever a NIC is shown

in Device Manager there will be an associated LAC or WAC in the

Network Connections. A check of the System Event log may show

errors related to Networking.
