    My Asus WL-138g v2 works with Vista 32 and 64bit. Scan still sell them. If you dont get one from scan, just make sure its a v2 as the earlier model doesnt work in Vista.

    lol, the drivers are there so I cant see why it wont work.

    Its actually one of the best supported cards out there. Asus have done a good job with the drivers. For the price and support its a bargain.

    Everything from Win98SE right through to Vista 64bit are supported, Linux too.

    or me.....bloody annoying isnt it.

    The only way to get that to work is a fresh install and the Airpace driver has to be one of the first driver reinstated.

    Yep, the Belkin F5D7001UK 125Mbps card works in Vista 32 and 64bit. Just use the windows drivers that install automatically, not the software CD

    I bought the Abit AirPace PCI-X. Never had a problem in Vista x64, or any other OS TBH. Worked first time, every time. Much more reliable connection than both the Belkin and D-Link i tried.

    What sort of issues u guys gettin with it?

    PoDd
