Angry Vista Network Not Working!!

I just installed vista again on my laptop that had vista on it originally, but I had a virus so I deleted the partition. I got it all installed, but now it's saying the drivers aren't installed. I have no Network drivers installed,but in the taskbar, there is a connection icon with a red 'X'.

HELP!

That is probably why the Red X, you need your drivers installed. You probably have a driver disk that came with your system hopefully ?

Or possibly go to the manf. website to download the network drivers. But ya, as oldskool said you need the drivers for your network to work.
