jeffkong Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Recently I decided to restore my computer, with my wireless adapter, to the way it was when I first bought it. It has Windows ME on it. after it was restored, my wireless adapter stopped working. The lights on it that usually glow green stopped, and it just doesn't work. It's plugged into the same place it's always been when it worked my Xbox adapter works perfectly what do I do to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agozer Posted December 25, 2004 Share Posted December 25, 2004 Changing the drivers won't help if the lights aren't on to begin with , you know... As for jeffkong's actual problem, I have no clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexis Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 try installing these drivers http://kbserver.netgear.com/support_details.asp?dnldID=603 this card is USB 2.0 so check that the USB card is also configured correctly, USB 2.0 devices will not work with USB 1.1 ports, however, maybe the drivers or windoes, set your current USB to 1.1, just try installing the drivers first and let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
