[driverloader] Problem with driverloader loading at startup

I'm running Fedora Core 3 on a Dell 600m laptop using Linuxant drivers.
Recently I repartitioned my hard drive to add a /var partition.  I moved
the data from the old partition to the new.  Except for loading the
driverloader, everything works like it did before.  Now when I boot the
system, my wireless network does not start.  I receive the following
dmesg error:

        driverloader: /var/lib/driverloader/bcmwl5.sys: unable to open
        (err=-2)
        driverloader: unable to load "bcmwl5.sys" (-2)
        driverloader: probe of 0000:02:03.0 failed with error -2
        driverloader: /var/lib/driverloader/bcmwl5.sys: unable to open
        (err=-2)
        driverloader: unable to load "bcmwl5.sys" (-2)
        driverloader: probe of 0000:02:03.0 failed with error -2

Running dldrconfig --dumpdiag solves the problem.  It goes ahead and
loads the windows drivers.  Or I can load the drivers from
http://127.0.0.1:8020 by clicking on reload.

I've removed driverloader using  "rpm -e driverloader" and have deleted
and reinstalled the windows drivers with no success.  

Any suggestions?
