So it really depends on what network card you have installed. Obviously the other laptops are fine. Since WPA is the "new technology", not all of the older Network cards have WPA-compatible drivers for Windows, but this is the only possibility for using WPA under Windows.

It is very nice and full of information, using the proper language for us to understand. It is exactly what I need. I have a problem with my home wireless network. I installed it but it is not protected as I would like to. I have WEP for now. I have 3 computers to connect. Two laptops (wireless) and one desktop which is not wireless. The wireless router has the options WEP, WPA, WPA2. I would choose WPA or WPA2 but the desktop will not get connected. I don't have any problem with the laptops. I had to go back and choose WEP for that is the only way all three will get connected to internet. How can I find out if my desktop uses or is set up for only WEP? My question is, if there is any way to upgrade my desktop to WPA or even better, to WPA2 and how do I do that? Please if you can help me with with step by step explanation I would really appreciate it. I just don't want to have any exposure to hackers and I am not a pro in computers. I really need your help.
