UNSOLVED
Vista USB Issues
Hi all, I was hoping someone could possibly shed some light on my desperate situation... Running an XPS710 and recently decided to move to Vista. All was working perfectly before I tried to install a Netgear WG111T USB 2.0 Wireless Adapter. The device is apparently Vista compatible and Vista drivers are available for it. However, after removing and reinstalling the drivers over and over I have come back to the same problem. Once I connect automatically to my network after boot the connection is fine for about 30min depending on traffic before the device suddenly shuts itself down disconnecting me from the network requiring a reboot to connect again. I was convinced this was a driver issue before I noticed that after losing my connection a tired to connect a plug-and-play music player that failed to be recognized. Furthermore on reboot, I receive on odd occasion a message prior to Vista loading telling me that there has been a "Keyboard Error", also running via USB. All problems are resolved once the computer boots... Any help would be fantastic - thanks.
