I just re-installed Windows xp and when I go into Network connections the
wireless wizard is not even listed. Seems to not even recognize that there
is a wireless adapter installed.

What hardware are you using? Did you install the drivers for it?

Greetings Chris,

Do you have Service Pack 2 for Windows XP installed? The Wireless Network
Setup Wizard is new in SP2 so you'll need to make sure you have that on your
computer.

Has anyone got any idea how I can get the XP wireless wizard back as my
Belkin PCMCIA software has replaced it with the Belkin version which is
useless.

use the restore option in XP to before you installed the belkin software.
