Default no signal for laptop

I'm not getting a wireless signal for a laptop, but I am getting one for an apple notebook. The router is a linksys, and I did a hard reset but only the Mac works...not the PC. It doesn't even detect a wireless network. What could be the problem?

Thanks.

Default Re: no signal for laptop

Please list the model info for BOTH the router, and the PC's wireless card to ensure they are compatible. Also, are you broadcasting the SSID from the rotuer? Is the router doing MAC filtering? (MAC address filtering, not MAC computer filtering, lol).
