Problem Getting 64 bit drivers

[CompIdiot]

Ok, I'm trying to get my wireless internet adapter (A linksys WUSB54GC) to work for my comp on windows XP pro, the 64bit edition. After looking on their web page, I've found out that they don't really have ANY 64 bit drivers of any kind, so i was wondering if anyone knows a way to make my version of windows work with just a 32bit driver. (And as it may come up with other drivers/programs, is there a way to make Win XPpro 64 work more like a 32 bit version of itself if the need arises.) Thanks in advance.

Nope. You will need to buy a new adapter that's supported. Look for either XP 64 or Server 2003 drivers, they are cross compatible.

I'd recommend an internal PCI adapter instead of USB, by the way. It will be more stable and impact less on the system resources.

Grrrr, not happy to hear that I have to buy hardware to get around this, but what must be, shall be. Thanks for the PCI vs. USB bit of info too glc.

Well, did a little digging and i'm having trouble figuring out what will work with Win XP pro 64. I went to a few brick and mortar stores as well as looked at a few online ones and most don't say if they work with my OS. Does anyone know of any that work for sure with my OS?

You *MIGHT* be able to get your USB adapter working with the Ralink drivers.
