    Hi guys

    Right have just moved to vista (with a bit of dread i might add) Low and behold i discovered that Vista wont even detect my wireless card!!! I was under the impression that service pack 1 was to resolve this. Are there any work arounds? have tried to download the vista drivers. But when installing them says device is not dettected! The card is a EDIMAX 802.11g and my main board is a Asus P5B SE

    Try XP drivers instead, that's what I had to do too get mine going. If that doesn't work then buy a card that supports Vista.
