Hello,
I've had a look around and I can't find anything that specifically deals with my prob. I tried to install a wireless-g card (Linksys WMP54G) on a desktop running XP-Pro yesterday and I could not get it to work. The system would not auto-detect the new hardware and when I tried to install the Linksys software direct from the CD (out of curiosity) the Linksys menu came up fleetingly crashed out - no menu. Anybody here install this card under XP-Pro and get it working. Are there compatibility issues and/or a special approach? Or is it just me? (BTW I know it works on my XP home PCs). Tks.
