Orinoco Wireless Gold Card

[Guest]

I cannot get this card to run on WIn XP Have tried everything. Apparently the drivers for this card are supposed to be bundled with XP. Tried to install drivers from manufacturers website and no success. Found this on another thread:

"Make sure the Wireless Zero Configuration service is
started and set to automatic. This would be listed in the
services.msc. Click Start, Run, and type "services.msc".
Open services and scroll down to Wireless Zero
Configuration Service, Start the service and set it to
automatic.

I cannot find an entry for "Wireless Zero Configuration Service" in services.msc utility

Please hel

2. run regedit and find

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WZCSVC

Hi Philip,

Can you elaborate on the registry entry? I'm not sure what to do. I have limited experience with the registry keys

thanks,

RML

I've put a reg file on my website if you want to use it.
It adds the WZCS entry
Just download it, run it and confirm the installation

You may have the best intentions, however, I strongly urge people not
to run reg files or exe files from strangers. This is how viruses and
exploits are spread.
