I have continued to try the download and on one occasion I got the wizard
message:"cannot complete the device driver installation wizard". The device
driver installation was unable tfind any dirvers designed for your maching.
Check with the vendor or your site administrator to ensure you have the
correct program.
This is my home machine so I am the administrator. Looking at the device
hardware, it definitely shows the network card as stated earlier and the
earlier 2006 driver. Is it simply configuration? I'm sure reaching here.
Regards, Norm.
