Hi, i have a Compaq Evo N1020V with Windows XP Service Pack 1 installed. I bought ASUS WL100G (802.11g Wireless Network Adapter). When i try install Asus Drivers, Win XP hung.
I've download drivers from http://www.asus.com.tw/support/downl...0g&Type=Latest but when i try install drivers, windows hung when is copyng the archive "bcmwl5.sys" to windows/System32/Drivers.
Welcome to windrovers rmicharet. Try installing in safe mode.
I tried it in safe mode, but it's the same. I got install drivers but at the end of installation, i got the next message: "There was a problem installing driver. Access denied"Quote:

The PCMCIA is ok, because I had install it in another notebook successfully (AIRIS Pegasus).
I don't know what is happening with Compaq Evo N1020V.
Sorry, but my inglish is a little rustic.
Thanks in advance.
In the same Compaq Evo N1020V, I've installed too Windows 2003.
I tryed install ASUS WL100g drivers in W2003 and do the same than Win XP SP1.
I tryed again in safe mode in Windows 2003 but the same result. "There was a problem installing the driver. Access denied. " or hung the computer.
Is ASUS WL100g Network adapter incompatible with Compaq Evo N1020V??????
I doubt that the issue is with the compaq. There is a conflict with the permissions associated with the driver. The driver is made by Broadcom and is used by many manufacturers. First, check your driver signing settings. They should be set to warn or ignore, not block. There is also a registry key to check to see if you have full permissions, but I cannot seem to find the reference.
Yes, driver's provides is Broadcom corporation.Quote:

The driver signing settings is set to warn (ask me if i want install drivers not signing). In the Quick start guide of adapter, tell:
"when asked about drivers compatibility with XP, click continue anyways since ASUS always test its drivers before product shipment."
This is that nice little confusion in registry I think - try this
NooNoo, i follow all the steps in the article, allowing full permisions to "Everyone" user, and reinstalling ASUS WL-100G's drivers. But when i reestart de notebook, win2003 and Win XP SP1 hung.Quote:

Have you done all the windows updates?
Have you checked at asus for an earlier version of the driver?

I had exactly the same problems with the 1020V and a Belkin card.
Go into the BIOS and set the following options.
The Parallel port mode needs to be Bi-directional
Enable 32 bit I/O for the HDD
Enable the USB Host Controller
You "Should" be ok with this.
..administrive user in workgroup ?Quote:
