Here's something that you could try, find your product on the manufacturers website and search for the drivers for your product, perhaps they may have released compatibility drivers for Vista. If that doesn't help, I would return your wireless card(if you can that is) and purchase a new wireless card making sure it has drivers compatible with Windows Vista. Regards, 3quilibrium
