From the information I can find on the Internet, the SB5100 is not compatible with 64bit versions of Windows.

When you run an x64 version of windows the hardware manufacturers need to write different drivers to the normal ones and with older hardware they generally don't bother.

So as mentioned, you'll have to use Ethernet.
