Help with Airport!

Hello!

Well, I don't know what happened. I got home from school and I opened up my white macbook. The airport seemed okay but i wasn't detecting any wireless lan so I rebooted. When it started again Airports appeared like desactivated, I clicked on it and there was a message telling me that i dont have any airport card installed. I restarted and it was the same. I have windows installed via bootcamp. I restarted in windows and the airport is working fine. Actually I am writing this from windows on my white macbook. I did some research and some people said that restarting in safe mode would fix it but it didin't. I checked my HDD from mac osx 10.6 and from the install disc too. I even repaired permissions and all that. Still, it doesn't work.

What should I do?

Shut the machine done. Turn it on and immediately press and hold Command + Option + P + R. Continue holding until you hear the machine startup chime twice, then release.

That should do the trick. Let us know how you make out.

that's how I reset the PRAM and NVRAM?
well, it totally worked! thanks!

I was getting desperate.. I was also looking for a new macbook or macbook pro cause it's been 4 years since i got this baby :3.

My problem is solved, thanks again.

No problem, that's why we're here. Not sure why it does the trick, but I have a friend with a 2006-vintage MacBook and it had the exact same problem and resolution.
