Well, with a reinstall, all the hardware drivers are lost.

You just need to reload them for your laptop. Here is the IBM downloads for those drivers.

Get all the ones you need, for your network card, your wireless card, your audio, video, etc.

You can download them on any machine, burn them to a CD and use that CD to install to your T41.

(With the RETAIL version - you can call Microsoft for help!)

If you just setup the drivers, you will be working!
