I have this 802.11n USB adapter. It works great in 32-bit with ndiswrapper. I can find ANY XP64 or Vista64 driver to use with ndiswrapper. The few Vista drivers I've found (none of which mention 64-bit anywhere I can find other than regarding WEP) seem to be missing one of the .sys files and ndiswrapper tells me "invalid driver" when I try to use them. I'd really like to be able to use the adapter in 64-bit, and my house won't be wired for a few months yet (yay for getting rid of wireless eventually). I've been checking the inf files on various 802.11n XP drivers and they all seem to reference the same hardware and CLSIDs, but the PCI ones that actually mention Vista64 don't seem to work for the USB device.

Does anybody know of a working USB Vista64 driver for 802.11n? I would use a PCI adapter, but my only spare PCI slot doesn't seem to work with anything I put in it (it's right under the PCIE graphics card, don't know if that has anything to do with it, but I've never seen a motherboard that disables PCI slots because of PCI-E. Seen it with ISA and PCI sharing, though).
