Review on Enhance Your Desktop's Connectivity with the Belkin F5D8000 Wireless Pre-N Network Card by Clayton Jimenez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Running Pre-N with Vista. I did it!

Just received the Pre-N card and router. It works fine with all my XP computers, but I have removable hard drives. Once with XP and once with Vista. Called Belkin and they told me they can't help, it's incompatible and that's all it takes. When I inserted an internal drive into Vista, it wouldn't boot at all. So I hit start, went to my computer and saw the Belkin installation CD in the CD drive. I right clicked on the installation drive and clicked open and saw the setup icon. Then I right clicked it and opened properties and then opened the compatibility menu and ran it in XP compatibility mode, clicked apply and then downloaded the driver and it works. Perfect. Pre-N works great and now that it's running on Vista I'm thrilled. I hope this helps someone out there with the same problem.
