Hello, I have a Belkin 802.11g wireless adapter, and i was wondering will this work with 64 bit vista? I am on XP now and i can get drivers for it, but i checked on belkins website and they requirements or windows 2002 or XP, doesn't say anything about vista. Could someone confirm or deny whether i am just being paranoid?

No, you're not being paranoid... They'll have to come up with a Vista64 driver or I think you're out of luck.

Bleh, i was hoping not to spend any more on equipment but looks like i will have too :/

Maybe Vista already supports it with a built-in driver? Just a thought, don't have one myself to test..

Depends how old the adapter is, my 2 year old fsd-7001 Belkin PCI card worked fine in my system, but I dont get a good signal where it's sat so stick to ethernet.

You could always posts in the internet and networking section of the forums, not that anyone here is not helpfull just maybe find some more answers from that section

On mine I got the driver file and installed it manually, didn't use the installer and it worked fine. You extract it from the exe
