Pam - I'm with you. It seems to be a communications
problem between the TI PCI-1410 Cardbus. I've been on the
phone with both Linksys and HP/Compaq. So far, I've not
been able to resolve it and I've done a complete system
restore. What a pain. If anyone has an updated TI PCI-
1410 driver, please let me know. Sounds like you might
have Ghost Drivers according to Compaq. If you want my
chat discussion from Compaq, let me know at
girliemen@cox.net and I'll forward it to you.

>>Hardware/Software involved:

>>WMP54G Linksys Wireless PCI Adapter (NOT ABLE TO
INSTALL)
>>CNET Ethernet PCI Adapter (INSTALLED)

>>The two wireless adapters work great on other
computers,

these

driver
>>independant of the actual hardware - the hardware would

>>
>>I have only tried one wireless adapter at a time, and I

>>depending on which adapter I'm trying to use.
>>
>>I have uninstalled the WLAN monitor, as XP does not
need

>>
>>I am using the most recent and the correct drivers, and

>>When I attempt to uninstall the packet scheduler

>>
>>---------------------------
>>Device Manager
>>---------------------------
>>Failed to uninstall the device. The device may be

>>OK
>>---------------------------
>>
>>I have attempted to disable these listings, and
