I have messed with this for nearly the entire week, and its starting to piss me off.
I have the following:
Epox Nforce2 8RDA MB
2000+ XP
512mb PC3200
WinXP Pro with SP1
I have a PCMCIA card that I want to use with my wireless ISP on my desktop system. I am currently using the USB client, but want to upgrade to the powered card to improve my signal strength.
http://www.mt.lv/index.html (scroll down on the right until you see the 200mW wireless card)
A PCMCIA to PCI adapter is installed and WinXP sees it fine. Intially, XP sees the wireless card but doesn't have a default driver for it. I have DL'ed the latest driver from the Manf. webpage (Microtik), but I start getting Code 12 errors once I have installed the latest driver for the wireless card.
Code 12: This device cannot find enough free resources to run.
What I have done so far with no luck:
(1) Taken out every card except for the wireless card and video card.
(2) I have reinstalled WinXP from scratch with only the wireless card and video card in the system.
(3) I have moved the PCMCIA to PCI adapter to several PCI slots.
Before I upgraded to the Nforce2 board, I was running an older Abit BE6-II board (BX) with the exact same hardware and the wireless card ran just fine. However, I was running W2K Pro on the system.
I have done all I know to do to get it to work. My next thought is that maybe going back to W2K would solve the problem, but I don't see how. W2K and XP use basically the same core, so why would this work?
Suggestions welcome
