wireless connection

[norman]

I have just installed the latest version of Edubuntu on to a new PC and
I am unable to get the wireless connection. I have followed the
troubleshooting procedure given in the help file from which I believe
the wireless card and the driver are recognised. 

The help then goes on to suggest to "Boot the kernel with the pci =
nopci option". I am very ignorant on technical matters and would be
grateful if some kind person could tell me how I do this please. I can
follow instructions and I will report back on what happens.
