Guest MartieAdams Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Hi, I've been posting this topic on tweakers.net (really no flame) but over there they didn't help me enough (noobish me). I have installed both wlan drivers from the compaq site and ndiswrapper. But when I enter ndiswrapper -l in the console It shows me that the hardware is not present. What do I have to do? I'm thinking I'm pretty close. next to the clock shows that I'm not connected. BTW the chipset is a BCM4301. And in MCC it shows it's appereance. PLEASE HELP!!!!!
