Hi all.

Wonder if you could help me please.

Vista isn't recognizing my Airport extreme network, not jut my network but not picking up anything.

This is something to do with the wireless key inside my Mac, right? maybe the wireless 'dongle' doesn't support Vista?

Have you installed the Windows software that came with your Airport Extreme wireless base station? (Airport Utility for Windows)

Regards.

Yes I have installed it and that didn't fix the issue.

I've been told this is a driver issue. Mac is supposed to ask you to make a driver CD (but I was never asked), going through the whole 'installation' again and fingers crossed it will ask for a CD this time.

I'll update.

Just tried doing the whole thing again and no luck, Mac didn't ask me to backup the drivers, the system is now installing Windows Vista again.

Now what do I do guys?

Thanks..
