turning on the wireless card

The hard disk crashed on my Dell Inspiron 6000 and after replacing it I've installed JUST FC5 - NO  Windows. Have followed all the steps to download and install all the drivers and firmware I need to get my builtin wireless (Intel Pro Wireless 2200) working - and Network Control panel tells me everything is in place. But... when I go to activate the card it can't be found and I get an error message asking me if the cable is connected. I have read elsewhere that one bug in FC5 on this machine is that it doesn't switch the wireless card on and that the fix is to go back into Windows and switch it on there. Well, folks, I don't have Windows and really don't want to install it just for that. Any suggestions about how to switch it on within FC5?
