reset the router and modem (unplug it or hit the reset button)

restart computer

"repair" the wireless connection (right click on the network connection, there should be an option of repair.

from this point it should work, or not... tell us us what the problem is... no connection at all? no internet, can you access other computers? can you ping the router? (goto start, run, type in "cmd" and then in the command box type "ping 192.168.0.1" which is the router usually, unless you changed it. give us the details from that.

any firewall installed? try disabling it temporarily...
