    Totally restoring a "bricked" laptop

    I have a very old laptop that didnt use to work, it had no OS too due to me screwing around way back then.

    I created a bootable CD with Windows XP on it and then managed to give my "bricked" laptop an operating system

    So now it has an OS, great..
    BUT now my laptop can't seem to turn it's wireless and bluetooth capabilities.
    So I wonder if anyone could help me with this.

    I'm thinking it has something to do with installing devices.
    Let's just assume I don't have the documents/CD stuff that came with the laptop, since it's so old.

    So if anyone could help me/give me some useful links it'll be good
    It's a HP laptop
    Pavilion dv 1000

    I want this laptop to run .exe programs that my Mac can't
