Have you tied the networking wizard? Its in control panel, networking folder. Make sure to use the same network name.

Make sure your laptop is part of the network first. I think a computer can be using the wifi without being part of the network. You will need to run the Wireless network setup wizard and then make sure that the lap top is in the same network name.

If you are using the Laptop's or WiFi card's wireless connection utility disable it and Let windows manage your wireless network.
Control Panel > Network Connections. If you don't have a wireless network icon in there, you may have issues with the hardware itself, try it at another location and see if it works there.
