Guest Sam Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Also tried 7.3.1.109, inf 1.15 on Vista and got instant BSOD. Tried 7.4.2.105 on XP from Laser21's link above and also the Toshiba Atheros driver there and still instant BSOD. This is depressing.

Guest heavyhands Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Is there no interest in making a working driver for AR5008 for XP? Why is all the interest just for Vista? having just purchased a toshiba lifebook with this hardware, but no love for vista, i must say there is indeed an interest in a working xp driver. please please please.

Guest tim Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Works for me, am using 7.6.0.154 with modded INF v1.17 and Vista x64 with Vistumbler v8.0SuperG should work as I assume the WIFI will hookup up at max speed. SuperG doesn't work, it works straight away with the drivers that download from windows update straight connection at 108mbps with full signal with these drivers i get 2 - 3 bars and always 54mbps?

mobilenvidia Posted August 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 Added 7.6.0.172 with INF 1.18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest J Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Added 7.6.0.172 with INF 1.18 I was wondering if someone could help me. I have an NEC i-select M5410 with an atheros AR5005G Wireless Network Adapter, using xp. Every time I try to connect to my wireless router (a TP-Link TL-WR641G), the nmi parity check/memory parity error screen appears. I have successfully managed to connect to other wireless routers without the screen appearing which makes me think that the problem is my router but I noticed that people have had problems with the atheros cards so I was wondering if it could be the source. I know very little about this so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanny Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 (edited) I can't seem to install this. I am using AR928x on a Sony Vaio SR12G. I download the 7.6.0.172 with 1.18 INF, unzipped it on my desktop, uninstall current drivers and update latest drivers using device manager pointing to the unzipped folder, and it fails to install giving an error. Any tips to install? I have installed the normal 7.6.0.172 I found on the other thread instead, still don't seem to be getting good range on that, 2 to 3 bars from only 2 rooms away. Was hoping to get 3-4 bars with modded INF 1.18. Edited September 11, 2008 by stanny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But once old driver removed it installed just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanny Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Already did that. I selected delete the software when uninstalling the device from device manager even, until it doesn't detect no more. Then I restart and pointed it to the modded info unzipped folder. Gives an error halfway installing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanny Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) Vista Home Premium 32 bit. Is the 7.6.0.172 the right one for AR928x? Edited September 12, 2008 by stanny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobilenvidia Posted September 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Vista Home Premium 32 bit. Is the 7.6.0.172 the right one for AR928x? Yip. Not sure why it's doing that to your card. Did the original driver tell you what make/model card you have in your machine ? I cannot find any 92xx cards in miniPCIe format only miniPCI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanny Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 The original one definitely told me its an AR928x. Even after I installed some driver from www.atheros.cz it told me its AR928x. Perhaps I am not uninstalling everything completely. Is there a way to completely clear a driver and it's software? What else should I do besides uninstall device and check remove software, and restart? There are 2 INF files in the folder after i unzipped this, I think. Which one should I point to? I tried pointing to the folder method which gave the error, maybe I can point directly to the INF file this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one (INF) ending with x is for Vista x64, try removing this as it might be looking in this INF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanny Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Just tried that, still don't work. They write, required line is not found in the INF. Do i need to edit anything or do anything besides just unzip the downloaded file and point update driver thing in device manager to that?

I had a look through the x86 INF and compared it with x64 INF they are identical except for the x86/64 differences. I'm finding the 928x chipset quite weird.

stanny Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 I could however install the unmodded 7.6.0.172 one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobilenvidia Posted September 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Found the modded INF install bug for the 92XX chipsets and uploaded a fixed driver. Also seperated the 32 and 64bit drivers to not confuse the installer (as happened often) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanny Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Appreciate the fast update mobilenvidia. However, after installing, my LED starting blinking like mad. AR928x has too much issues lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Hi; thank you for your work on this driver; I have been experiencing much better connectivity and speed using your modifications. One question though; how can I change my MAC address? [the story behind this: I had been able to change my mac address using the stock drivers until I updated to windows XP SP3, I have since upgraded to vista (sp1) and still am unable to spoof my mac address...] Any advice? Thanks again for your help :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
