    Hello

    I have a new laptop since a week but vista is giving me some trouble by not showing my TV throught S-video. So i decided to install xp on a usb stick to see if i get more luck with that OS. Anyway im trying to get my Broadcom wireless adapter 802.11g detected but without succes. The only network card that is coming up is "1394 net adapter". I have tried many differend drivers but the 802.11g doesnt get detected. Can someone help me? Im using xp+Sp2 so the OS shouldnt be a problem.

    I have used these drivers
    WLAN-Broadcom_V4.170.25.19_vista_x86_x64_BCM_4311_4312_4321(WHQL)
    This is the standard driver that works on vista 32bit

    09.Wireless_Broadcom_V4.100.15.7_XP_BCM_4311_4321(WHQL)

    And some hp software but all fails. Thanks for your time!

    Hi tobbert,

    Your post suggests you are wanting to install your wireless driver on XP. If that is the case you need the XP driver, you will find one listed here.

    Sorry if i have misinterpreteted your post.
