Linksys notebook adapter and Win98SE
is working fine with my XP Pro laptop, and now I want to increase flexibility by adding another laptop to my home wireless LAN - to increase options for storage etc So I have bought another WPC54G to use on my Win 98SE laptop but cannot find a way of getting round an error on loading the install CD. I have opted to use the same channel and SSID as the existing setup, but opted for Ad-Hoc mode (actually, selecting infrastructure mode makes no difference with this problem) - and at the same point of s/w load receive an error as follows : =================================================== Linsys Installation Wizard Installation Failed ErrorCode=-3 ErrorDesc.=Required data not found or disk space not enough =================================================== assuming the target for install is C drive, then space should not be the issue as all partitions including C on the 98SE laptop are healthy (C is FAT32 457Mb free) has anyone come across this one, or am I facing a full o/s reload for a clean start ? thanks in advance Dave

Long shot but worth a try before you start reformatting.
