BELKIN F5D8001 N1 Desktop Wireless PCI Card - Driver
Friends,
I badly need some help here.
I had a sabrent wireless desktop card that was a major problem after upgrading to Windows 7. It would some a fe wminutes and then do nothing for the next 12 hours. SOmetime it would should the connection is all good, at at times it would say DNS server is not responding. I used the latest RALINK drivers from their website that said it was for Windows 7. Called Sabrent and RALINK like 10 times, left voicemails and notes for tech support, they never EVER called me back.
Since I had this Belkin wireles routre at home which has been doing pretty good, I decided to buy a belkin wireless card too. I landed up buying the Belkin F5D8001 N1 Desktop Wireless card.
Guess what? it comes with a XP CD. Their site has a newer version for Visa 32/64 bit as well.
How ever the XP software does not get installed from the CD. If I point to the drivers folder on the CD it does not work too.
When I try installing the new execuctable on their website (vista 32/64 bit) it says the version could not be determined. I tried the compatibility mode for every damn possible version XP, Win 2000, Vista SP1 , SP2...no luck...its the same message.
Belkin says they don't know when the windows 7 driver will be out.
The seller refused to buy the card back!
Any hopes left? Please?
Thanks,
MG.
