  2. Yes; the error stately says "Windows cannot connect to SSID However, I managed to buy a new Wireless card from Linksys Inc. for $39.99 at BestBuy, works great on my Vista machine. Steps of how to use your new wireless card on Windows Vista any Edition: 1. Make sure the one that is only used up to Windows XP is connected to your wireless router with the default driver, go to your router's settings page To do this step, click start and search for cmd, click on the specified program (Command Prompt) Type in ipconfig /all, scroll up until you see the Default Gateway Address: 192.168.X.X It will display the network cards you currently have on Windows Vista any edition (Note: the LAN Connection will be enabled after installing Vista on your PC. However, if it doesn't detect the Ethernet Ready LAN Connection, please insert the DVD/CD of the exact driver on Windows Vista Installation startup.

  3. I see like 1 to 6 wireless connections (5 are my neighbors routers, 1 is my Linksys router) Yes hunkydory --- what does that mean? Every device works (after the 2nd BlueScreen) Plus, the only driver that works is my HWU54G (ZdWLAN IEEE 802.11b/g) Wireless Driver, just the other one doesn't work on the Vista Machine. It did once, and that was it. Any solutions, like 'buy a new wireless USB card for the Vista Computer'? or others? If so, please reply to this. Thanks for asking me these questions.
  4. Yo, what's up? I have Windows Vista Home Basic on my custom-built PC and when I updated my wireless driver to XPC 802.11b/g, my computer will not connect to my wireless router. I think it might be my router, or I don't know what it is at all. Please help with the solution. P.S.: I'm a n00b here.
