    A few devices not recognized


    I installed W7 RC with no issues, but it then fails to identify many of the devices on my machine. It doesn't find the Belkin PCI G Wifi adapter despite the fact I separately installed the latest driver, it just doesn't see the card at all. It doesn't find the sound card either.

    When I try to go and find for new devices through the control panel, nothing comes up.

    Any idea ?

    Thanks in advance

    PS : everything works fine on Vista, all the devices are recognized correctly, seems to be specific to W7

    Have you tried installing the Vista drivers using compatibility mode?
