WUSB54GC Windows XP Professional compatibility

So I bought the adapter WUSB54GC Wireless today.  My computer operating system is Windows XP Professional.  Whenever I have load the disc and click on "Start Setup", a window appears which says: "this version of Windows not supported."  Does anyone know if there is a way to solve this problem with a driver or something?

I did some playing around with it today, and I seem to have understood that it works.  I went online with the office that has the router and saved the installer for Windows XP SP2 on my thumbdrive.  Then I installed on my computer, the software for the wireless adapter installed and plugged into the router.  Everything seems to work, so I hope I did everything right.  Thanks for your help great_white, I would have not got it to work without your initial post.

    Francisco,

    You could simply stop the Microsoft Essentials if it's getting in the way.

    Prevent the Microsoft Antimalware Service starts automatically

    If you cannot find the software under the name mentioned in the article, locate the service called Windows Defender.

    The same rule applies: set the service to manual start or disable the service.

    =========================================================================

    Opinions differ on the question of whether Microsoft Essentials / Defender should indeed be removed or If disabling services is sufficient.

    Pouvez Avast! Pro co-exist with MS Security Essentials?

    My 8.1 or OS systems, Windows Defender has been disabled (together) - no problems with Avast first.

    For your peace of mind, you may contact Avast and ask their opinion with reserve.

    Hi, I had installed on my x 61 for about a year with zero problems of win2k. the reason why I went finally xp was due to new standards unavaiable on 2 k (wga, video hi-def, sdhc, etc.)

    for the sata issue I can think of two options: integrate or start in compatibility mode, install the drivers and drivers switch to sata.

  • Windows 7 Professional, DirectInput issues and software that does not work

    A little history: I have Vista Business installed and about 1 1/2 months, I've upgraded to Windows 7 Professional. I attend game and Sim classes that require me to use the Torque Game Builder, Torque Game Engine and Builder of couples of programming. I got Torque Game Builder and constructor not installed with Vista which game me no problem, I upgraded to Windows 7, installed torque game engine. First worked. Recently installed UnRealEd, 3DS max, Maya, Mudbox, MotionBuilder, all work ok. In 2 weeks, when I try to launch the products of couple, they do not work. They appear in the process, but they do not work, when I run in compatibility mode, disable visual themes and disable the composition of the bureau, run as admin, the screen flickers, past at the base, the program does not work. I've updated ALL my drivers from the manufacturer with the last site, I rolled back my drivers to the previous version, I performed a complete installation of Windows 7, tried using a virtual XP Mode machine and create a partition and have a dual boot with Vista business as well. All program worked in a first time in Windows Vista, but not 7. I could also access the program installed in Windows 7 drive and he would run as long as I was on Vista OS. I would then run DXDiag, when it runs, I get, 'DxDiag has detected that there may have been a DirectInput access problem last time that this program has been used. You want to bypass DirectInput this time? "I checked both BONES and found this to be the same issue. I don't remember when I ran the programs recently on Vista and I did a DXDiag, I had data entry.

    Now, I did too, the last Installation program installation of DirectX web and Auditor files system who finds no problem

    My system configuration is:

    Dual Boot: Windows 7 Professional, Windows Vista Business
    AMD 64 + 5000 double
    nVidia 8600 GT
    2 GB memory

    The only other program I can tell who has a problem is UnRealEd... all my work of Autodesk products.

    Hello

    With Vista or Windows 7, what what Microsoft says, you really need a minimum of RAM 2GBs for them to work reasonably.

    Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

    If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

  • With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    With Windows XP Professional X 64 expire, what is the replacement? Windows 8 not compatible.

    Windows XP 64-bit is one of those odd elements that does not quite fit in.  It is based on the code of Windows Server (hence why it only goes back to the SP2 not SP3 as Windows XP did) so it is - upgrade (for purchase in any case) options are limited.  Frankly - Windows XP 64-bit is one of these products, most people should have just skipped (in my opinion) - and with this in mind - the replacement for those running it should be to get Windows Vista 64 bit or Windows 7 64-bit or 64-bit Windows 8.  It there just will be no discount to do on monetary incentive plan.

    My suggestion - if your system is good enough, compatible, etc. and you actually * needed * to upgrade (it's not like YOU all just because Microsoft will stop their support extended to it in 2014 - big deal?)  Download Windows 7 Professional 64-bit and clean install.  You can use the free Windows XP (32 bit) MOU to run many older programs, you have * if * you have one that cannot be run under Windows 7 or with the compatibility mode.
     
    In addition - get an unknown computer (for you).  You can find a lease one or something with Windows 7 64-bit, probably for the same amount you'd pay for a version non - OEM Windows 7, pay a little more and you'll probably have a machine that could handle Windows 8 - If you wish.  ;-)

    Hi JimNorman,

    1. What is the version/edition of windows vista installed on the computer?

    2. How do you try to upgrade Windows Vista to Windows 7 (via anytime put at level or by using a disk)?

    Make sure that you upgrade to the correct version, some versions of Windows cannot be upgraded with the installation disc you are trying to use. For example, you cannot upgrade a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version, or upgrade a higher edition of Windows like Windows Vista Ultimate Edition, to a lower edition, such as Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. If this is the case, you will need to use the custom during installation option.

    Before you attempt to upgrade, please run the Windows 7 upgrade Advisor:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor

    Also, check if your computer is compatible for Windows 7, using the Compatibility Center:

  • Windows Vista Edition home premium 64-bit: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit upgrade: on site or install Clean?

    Hello

    In order to know which version of Windows 7 upgrade purchase, using the top prizes starting tomorrow, I would like to know if I can use a facility in place or will require a clean install (when updates are sent in October?).

    I upgrade from Vista Home Premium 64-bit for Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (to use the XP compatibility feature).

    But the installation in place, I think, is an easier process, especially if some 3rd party software, which does not transfer through a software transfer and cables, should proceed to deactivation, reactivation and or new material for release of the keys, etc. for a clean install.

    The Beta Upgrade Wizard for Windows 7 that I ran on my computer Vista Home Premium 64 upgrade to Windows 7 Professional provides a clean install, not in place. But I wonder if this may be a piece of information in the Beta Wizard. Reading online today mentions that the upgrade to a higher level version (such as Vista Home Premium 64 for Windows 7 64 Profession) can be done on site.

    All links to information Microsoft 'official' on this topic would be appreciated.

    Kind regards

  • Vista Home Basic to Windows 7 Professional?

    So, I did some research because I really wanted to upgrade my Vista to 7.  I'm currently under Windows Vista Home Basic (32 bit), and through my college, I can get Windows 7 Professional (64 bit) free.  I know that, from a 32 to 64-bit you need to do a clean install, but I was just curious, as if it is possible to do it this way.  I did the Adviser to upgrade to windows 7 and through reading, I know how do it, I don't know if I can go from the Basic Home Edition Vista to 7 Professional?

    It is not a upgrade path: base > professional.

    And 32-bit to 64-bit is not an upgrade path.

    Brother printer driver hl-1230 parallel not recognised in Windows 7 Professional 32 bit. It is supported by MS and brother informed me to contact MS support, but of course MS wants MORE money for support.

    * printers only like mine is HL-1240 and HL-1250. I installed them, but it did not work. Only the white pages are out.

  • Re-installing windows 7 Professional without a cd/dvd on computer.

    I had bought and installed (someone else did it for me) windows 7 Professional on my laptop about 2 years ago. In October or so I downloaded windows 10 but now have to uninstall it because my company has problems with compatibility with their system. Now, I have to re - install Windows 7 Professional but by laptop doesn't have a cd/dvd.  Way, using my key number of access, download Windows 7 from microsoft.

    Step 1: Get a USB, 4 GB in size.

    Step 2: Download Windows 7 Professional ISO media:

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Step 3: Create a copy on a USB pendrive bootable:

    After graduating the .iso file, you can use the built-in Image disc burning tool or Microsoft .iso to USB/DVD tool to create a bootable DVD or USB (requires a blank DVD or USB flash to at least 4 GB key).

    Then follow the instructions to start from the installation media, then perform a custom installation:

    How to: perform a customized Windows installation

    See the section of the article for Windows 7.

    I would like to recommend you backup your 10 Windows Installer before doing this:
