Hi,

I purchased PCMCIA cardand driver that comes along with package. This PCMCIA card is used to browse the internet.

It was working fine in XP but fails to work on Windows Vista though it is detected.

The actual problem is with debugging application writen for this card is not getting any packets it seems because of this

connectivity from PC to card itself not up. This also concludes that, i cant browse.

Any suggestion, would help me a lot.

Please let me know if you need more details on this.

Thanks

Vinayak

You need Vista-specific drivers for this card; having XP drivers does no good. If the card didn't come with Vista drivers, and you intend to use it with Vista, and there are no Vista drivers from the supplier's website -- take it back. Without Vista drivers, you're just going to spend a lot of time getting frustrated with disconnects and dropouts.
