K so let's start where my mom bought a toshiba laptop and got a free windows 7 upgrade on it. Well she didn't care for it so she said I could use it on my dell desktop and so I did and people said it would work fine. Well I installed it and I'm running on Windows 7 now fine and I use a wireless card to connect to my router (a Netopia 3D Reach Card) and I have a ATT cd that installs the drivers and stuff and sets it up. Well when I put in the CD the autoplay comes up and i hit run and nonthing happens. I have also tried opening it in a folder and running as an admin and changing compatibility and when my computer is turning on going to the boot menu and booting the CD Drive and neither work.

So I think it might either be my drivers, cuz i forgot to backup my old drivers, or this CD isnt compatible yet? Any solutions please? :(

P.S. I'm on my sisters computer incase you were wondering how I have internet.

Hi Zack and welcome

Not to worry. If you can tell us netopia model number we can hunt down a driver for it. We also need to know if you are 32bit or 64.

Thanks
