Thanks for looking and hope this helps someone else. Wednesday, July 30, PM. I can think of the following possibilities: 1. Thanks for your response.
I can address each of your thoughts easily. I updated the wireless card driver and all other hardware drivers before running SP3. No antivirus software was installed at the time I installed SP3. Windows is and was in control of the wireless card the whole time. Hope this provides you with enough information. Thank you again. I had the same exact thing and could not for the life of me figure out what was going on. I tried using the original driver that came with the dell laptop, the newer driver, no driver and nothing worked.
Thanks again! Thursday, February 18, PM. I'm having this same problem. I can't get WPA2 to show up in the list. I deleted the device and reinstalled but I still don't have WPA2. I have Windows 7 systems which connected immediately after asking for the security key. I, once again, recommend to retire those computers and go shopping! You must log in or sign up to reply here.

However, in cases where updating your laptop to SP3 is not possible, or this can be used. Another probable cause for this error message and being unable to connect to WPA secured wireless access points is lack of support for these encryption protocols, by the hardware network chipset. Older chipsets may not support WPA and WPA 2, search online for your network chipset technical specs to know if this is the case. In this case, the only solution for you is to upgrade the WLAN chipset possible on desktop PCs fitted with Wifi cards, not very viable on a laptop or change your encryption method to WEP.
In some cases, the wireless LAN chipset manufacturer might have released newer drivers that add support for these newer security protocols.
