Just bought a netgear wireless router (DG834G) with the wireless adapter
(WG11v2). I went on windows updates and successfully got the driver for the
adapter but cannot install the software from the CD because it only installs
on XP, 2000, 98 etc. I am using RC1 and was wondering if there was any other
software that I coudl install that would work? I have been on the netgear
site and found nothing. Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks,

Luke

If you've got the driver then you don't need anything else. The
NetGear wireless software doesn't give you anything useful.

If you really need it, why not try running the installer in XP SP2
compatibility mode,

So how do I select the hotspot etc. Surely there must be some form of
software that I have to use?

I have read it somewhere but where do i change the compatibilty mode again?

Just choose to connecto to a wireless network and have the software
search for the SSIDs that are being broadcast. I've never ever
installed any NetGear wireless software for my WAG511 card.

For comaptibility mode, right-clcik the installer EXE and click the
Compatibility tab.
