**Fixed**
I was ablet to fix it by going to admtek.com.tw who manufactured one or two of D-Links chipsets and tehn of course, my cards chipset. The ADMTEK8211 drivers were able to fix teh problems I had and I am posting from my wireless connection right now!

OLD POST
XN-2511b <<from xterasys, a local company.

I bought that card and the drivers wtih it dont work, Its my computers problem specifically because I went to their office and the support guy told setit up fine and dandy.

I go to install the drivers, and when i choose install and find my driver manually, the thing gives a message back saying It couldnt install the drivers at this time.

Im running win2k sp4
Soyo KT400 Dragon Ultra Plat.

Why don't you take your system in there and have their tech support do it for you? If it's a local company product...chances are, most of us here have never even heard of it.
 
I actually am going to bringm y system into them, but thats only because they are nearby.
I said local company because they have a close by office, I didnt mean they only sold locally. they are international, just an offbrand company.
I made a trip down there already to exchange the card (didnt think itw as the problem, but it couldnt hurt) and I dont wnat to go back, but if I have to I have to...
so if anyone can help?
 
Don't take my word for it but, but sometimes as a last resort I remove everything from the controlflags bit in the inf file then it works.
