Hi I've just bought a Bolse 300 Mbps Wireless-N Usb Network Adaptor from Amazon for my dad's computer running windows xp 2002 32 bit. I installed it using the cd and it connected to the internet. He rebooted and it hasn't worked since. The router is in a room nearby, has a good signal. I tried removing and reinstalling and although it is visible it shows as being firewalled. I tried to add it through Windows but I got a message saying Windows cannot connect to it and to use the software that came with it. Turning off the Windows firewall makes no difference. The last couple of times I tried to connect it Windows shut down and gave a serious error message. Any ideas - dad is really disappointed!

Thanks but I don't really understand your reply. Can you spell out what to do with my wireless adaptor problem? Thanks.

Run these programs on the computer and post the logs in your next reply, you can skip speccy.  Transfer them to the problem machine with a cd/dvd or usb storage device.

Without logs to see what is happening, I am just shooting in the dark.....

[ADMS]

Thank you. I will try to do what you suggest next week and post results. Get back to you soon.

If that still doesn't work, try to find other adaptor  that will work on XP.
