Is this compatable?
 

hey guys,
i had a WUSB54GC wireless network adapter for my xp system and i just
got a new windows vista 64bit system and that network adapter is not
supported. In the last thread i had someone suggested this one that
should work with a 64bit.

Can anyone verify that this would work? i was looking all over the
page, and maybe im blind (most likely) but i couldnt see anything saying
it will for sure be compatable. I guess it really only depends on the
drivers for it.

Yes its compatible but you need to download the drivers from smc's
website cause the disc only has xp/2000 drivers.

yeah i saw that page in their downloads, i just wasnt sure if that was
the 32 bit driver, cuz linksys had a similar download and they didnt
specify what version of vista, but since it didnt recognize it with my
system, i assumed it was the 32 bit driver.

I very much doubt it. The 'Vista' driver available from SMC is essentially
a folder containing XP/2000/98 driver files. Nothing that would suggest
64bit at all..

This one is Vista64 compatible though..

If you open the downloaded folder from SMC, that is all you get. Presumably,
the XP/2000 driver works for Vista 32, but the chances of it working for
Vista 64 is zero..
