if you choose to goto windows 7 - you have the drivers availableWhen you said install the Windows 7 Drivers, do you mean when I install Windows 7 or right now even though I'm running Vista?
excellent - so now i would use belarc or siw to get a full configuration and save the details off the PChere are no more yellow notifications in the device manager

not sure - but now you have the correct adapter and know the windows 7 driver is available - its just a case of trying it now reallyAll right, I'm fairly confident that it should work with windows 7 but the windows 7 upgrade advisor still says there is a need for a new driver fot the WG311 wireless adapter. Will the Windows 7 drivers on the gigabyte website fix that or is that a compatibility issue between windows 7 and the adapter?
sounds like a router issue - its NOT interference as we can only see one wireless signal on xirrusI am only guessing that it is the wireless adapter that is causing connectivity issues, in fact it may well be the router seeing as my laptop experiences similar issues.
