Gigaset USB 108 disabled on start up

Hi Guys,

Am having some problem getting my Siemens Gigaset USB stick 108 to work correctly on my new x64 vista system.
I visited the siemens website a few days back and d/loaded and installed their latest "vista drivers" for my wireless adapter. However the card refuses to come on automatically whenever the computer is started up, but works fine if i un-plug and re-plug it back while the computer is switched on.
This is becoming highly irritating... any ideas..?

Thanks,
Farhad.

Dont know the hardware in question personally, but have you checked the software settings for any autostart features? Seems obvious I know, but sometimes it could be that this feature is not on by default.

Yes, I have the same problem.
Try to use the adapter without the siemens monitor software. Use windows wireless configuration utility instead.

What I did is:

1. I uninstalled the software.
2. restart
3. I unpacked the software on download
4. I plugged the adapter in
5. I directed the driver search to the driver folder
