    Wireless for Vista 64?

    Alright boys and girls I know this may have been asked before but...is it possible to get a USB wireless adaptor that actually works with vista 64 out of the box? i.e. does not require me hunting for the appropriate drivers, which then invariably don't work anyway.

    Any help is much appreciated

    It really depends on the chipset, I kno its possible but will need research, just search some you are interested in and see what is available, as for out of the box....pretty sure they will still need to have the drivers installed.

    The Siemens Gigaset 108 will work, but not out of the box. You'll need to download the drivers from the Siemens website. I did, and it works fine (Vista Home Premium 64-bit).
