Drivers for Windows XP

I have installed the card on an XP test system. The drivers supplied with the card did not work, however there where drivers with XP that work correctly. My problem lies in that the Compaq Client Manager does not detect that the card is installed at all. Could any light be thrown on this?

Hi,

Sorry I can't help, but I have a similar problem... I've just tried to install my WL100 on my new Windows XP Professional system, but XP didn't recognise the Wl100 card - it couldn't locate a suitable driver. I tried the current Compaq WL100 driver from SP15584.exe, but that causes XP to crash (Blue Screen of Death). Can you please tell me how you got XP to install a driver for your WL100 ?
Thanks....

You can try this...install the W2K driver and during the installation, ignore all the warnings. After it is installed, uninstall the driver again. Then install the driver and hopefully it will work.

That's what I did.
