Help me find my Wireless Internet PW

I re-installed windows, and now need my PW for the wireless network. i wasnt even aware i had a PW for my wireless, so it must have been saved under my old windows. of course, i have no clue what the password is, or where the CD is for the wireless modem.

i still have my old window files on my laptop's partitioned harddrive. is there any way i could do a search to find the wireless password? i imagine this could be found in some log considering my computer used to have the password automatically saved.

plug your pc in to the back of the router using an ethernet cable and turn off wifi on your pc then type 192.168.1.1 into your web browser it will take you to your router setup the default password is "admin" (no username)

You might be able to find a password there.

There's a reset button on your router -- you have to hold it for 5 seconds.
