Question:

My USB Wireless connector doers not work. Please help??

I have a Dell Pentium 4 with Windows XP. I bought a Wireless USB connector so that I could access our wireless network. When I plug in the flash drive it does not come up with an icon on the toolbar as it said it should in the manual. What do you think is the error? Somebody suggested that I download Windows Service pack 2? Please help.

Answer:

You dont have Windows Service Pack 2 yet? Damn!! Have you tried loading the driver?
First reinstall whatever software you may need with it. Then try the adaptor in a different USB connector. If it does not come up then try wiggling the adaptor in the USB socket, I have a USB drive that required me to do this before it is seen by my PC. At that point you may get some feed back or not, if the computer still does not see the adaptor I would say it is a hardware issue with the device; return it and get a new one.
