My wireless network adapter won't work on my laptop.I'm running 98SE.HELP PLEASE?
I followed every instruction to the letter for installing my cardbus adapter.
it is a airlink awlc3026t model number.
i disabled all the stupid ports and uninstalled all dialup networking in the windows setup so it won't interfere with the installation of the adapter.
when i first installed it, it was fine.
then i downloaded internet explorer 6 for 98se.
then i lost the cardbus connection.
so i did a clean install of 98se and tried again.
i have no problem installing the utility and driver.
but when it comes time to connect the network card 98se won't recognize the driver for it.
i went to the website and got no info at all.
after playing around disabling the ports and such the utility popped up for a brief moment then disapeared.
I HATE COMPUTERS!
Does anybody know anything about 98se?
I know something is preventing the card from being installed properly but what...
Sounds like a software conflict.
Ensure that your system sees the hardware.
