Windows Server 2008 64-bit support?
« on: September 20, 2008, 03:53:50 PM »
I bought this card today.  Before I open it I wanted a second opinion on whether it would work on 64-bit Windows 2008 OS?  The guy at the store said yes since it is supported in Vista 64-bit.  Has anyone tried it on 2008?

I couldn't get it to detect any networks on Server 2008.

Wow, thats a long document.
Windows Zero Config is not included for server OS's.
Now 2008 may be different but I doubt it.

the wireless feature must be installed from the server console. Just installed the card today (with 64-bit Vista drivers) and it works fine now...
