SOL = Sadly Out of Luck (in it's polite form, although not the original form).

And yes, if Belkin or Microsoft hasn't released drivers, then you won't be able to get it to work.

Have you tried the 2500 chipset drivers? it's a long shot, but it might work.

I got on the MS beta team early, but have yet to install Vista. It's situations like jamesrt2004 is having that prevents this. Don't even know why I bother to get the pre-release versions. I've played with the idea of building a test computer with some of the extra parts I have lying around, but doubt if that computer could do the new OS justice. My current system could definitely handle it, but I've never been comfortable with running beta apps on my main PC. Even on a seperate partition. Call me paranoid I didn't even upgrade to XP Pro until 2003. Call me cautious too
