Wireless USB Network Adapter with Vista

I can't seem to find any drivers for my Microsoft MN-510 wireless network
adapter. I would assume since it is a Microsoft product they would support
it for Vista. Thanks for the help.

Not necessarily, some device Drivers, whether its from Microsoft or third
party's can require updated drivers, especially for Vista.

Re: Wireless USB Network Adapter with Vista

How did you install the old drivers? I have the driver cd and I tell Vista
to look at it and it doesn't seem to work. I've tried installing several
different .exes from the net as well. Thanks

Re: Wireless USB Network Adapter with Vista

Did you try updating it through Device Manager?

Re: Wireless USB Network Adapter with Vista

Yes. That is how I manually told it where to look. For some reason the
default plug 'n play doesn't allow me to instruct it where to look (even
though it claims it is asking me).
