Windows Vista Unidentified Network Problem

I'm Hoping someone can help me with this. I have an older Laptop that can connect to my wireless router, but won't let me onto the internet. I keep getting an unidentified network error. I've googled that shit and it's a common problem, but nothing seems to fix it.
Long story short, if any of you lovely computer people know how to fix this, i will love you forever and ever!!!!

not me no vista shit left !

hold windows key + R

type "cmd" minus the quotes - click ok
type "ipconfig /release" hit enter
type "ipconfig /flushdns" hit enter
type "ipconfig /renew" hit enter

type "ping www.google.com" hit enter

you should see 4 or 5 lines that start with "reply" followed with time=XXms where XX is your latency - it'll vary depending on your connection

if you see "host destination unreachable"

try connecting the laptop via an ethernet cable if that works then download an updated driver for your wireless network adapter, goto device manager (in the control panel) remove the wireless network adapter, reboot, and try reinstalling it with the latest driver

Thanks death, ill give that a try
