    After searching further, I found these drivers:
    Network Adapter Driver for Windows Vista*
    These seem to work. I unpacked the installer with WinRAR, went to device manager, update driver, have disk, and pointed it to the "PRO100" folder.
    There I selected the "Intel PRO/100 M Desktop adapter", and Windows gave me a warning that the selected driver was not compatible with my hardware, but I installed it anyway, and I see that it works.
    I wonder why it doesn't work out of the box just like the Windows Compatibility website says.

    Thanks everyone.

    Well, it looks like that solution is a bit incomplete.
    I only now saw that the driver provides networking functionality, but it always thinks the cable is unplugged.
    It's very strange. I plug the cable in, and Windows gets an automatic IP address, and everything works (LAN, Internet), but it says "Network cable unplugged". I can't get to the status of the connection, because it is grayed out.
    By using "ipconfig", i can see that I have an IP address and what that is.

    So it looks like that driver isn't 100% compatible (like Windows said). Anyone know about another driver that will work?

That said; Intel has discontinued support for the Intel ProSet/Wireless 2200BG Network Adapter. There might be some generic drivers capable of Win7 out there, but I can't find them on the Intel site. I did find Vista drivers here. Update: These drivers worked and this old lappy is now...
