Unfortunately WL-GI-700S is quite different to WL-XI-700XA... WL-XI-700XA is a really old device [11Mbps Wireless LAN USB Dongle] which I think should work with Vista's integrated wireless driver but WL-GI-700S is not so old (bought in 2006), still available and recommended on the manufacturer's website and it is quite different piece of hardware [High Speed 54Mbps Wireless USB Adapter].
I rather think I may try to use other manufacturers' device drivers for the devices based on the same chipset, Vista recognises it as
MARVELL Wireless Device V.1.0.1.2
Any suggestions? Could anybody tell me about devices recognised same as mine and what drivers do you use?

Problem solved. I used Win XP drivers from original manufacturer's CD and network started to work. After first reboot Vista found available (optional) update for this driver and updated it. Everything works perfect. Thanks
