check in control panel then devices and under networks make sure you have the wireless cad listed and no conflicts etc, without knowing the history of the laptop it may have had a windows reinstall and missing drivers.

next check to see that the firewall is not blocking your wireless from detecting

hope this helps
cheers

if the lights not going on at the switch then u may be right and its a hardware fault, if it is a softwware issue/conflict you may be best just doin a clean install of windows and drivers, other options are wireless PCMCIA card or wireless dongle
