XP to Windows 7 lost wireless network adapter
The only Network adapter left is the ethernet. I've been on the Acer website ( its an Aspire 9500) but they only have drivers for XP operating system - not windows 7.
What should I do ?

Hi ... Welcome to Seven Forums .... Read the Link below ... Which Network Adapter do you have ? ...
Windows 7 ? Acer Aspire 9500 Wireless Drivers - Looking through the Windows - Site Home - MSDN Blogs
I've read that link and a couple of others but I'm really not that tech savvy and its not working..
How can I find out what Network adapter I have ?
The link is saying to download the XP driver from the website and install it manually like this:
1. Click update driver
2. Select driver to use (Browse to the Windows XP driver directory and select the .inf file in that folder.)
3. Choose the Windows XP driver.
I cannot connect to the internet. Giving me a link that requires internet access isn't helping sorry maxie...
ControlPanel>Devicemanager>NetworkAdapter(or more likely Problem device).
Select device> right click update driver
Select Browse my computer> LET me pick>
UNCHECK show compatible hardware
Scroll down to Intel Corporation(left side box)
scroll to IntelWifi link 1000BG,
Upate
see screenshot
Then update normally.
