Windows X64 Edition troubles

Hi all,

I'm setting up a new PC at the moment, with a few minor problems. Most of them revolve arround drivers not being compatable with the 64 bit operating system.
The main trouble is trying to get connected to a local network and hence get online in order to find and download new drivers.
I am having trouble connecting a Belkin Wireless G USB Networ Adapter.
I had similar trouble using normal XP a couple of weeks ago and gave up expecting things to be fine on the new set up.

If anyone can help I would be VERY grateful and impressed.

Thanks

BB

  • Thats the trouble with x64 edition. Although it will support 32 bit software, all drivers must be 64 bit. That is your solution... get 64 bit drivers...
  • Thanks. It was tricky, but I finaly found a driver modified from another product. Thank Martin above for google and tech forums.
