Got a problem with some wireless adapter software. I installed it along with
the adapter and everything worked so-so for awhile and then stopped working.
I then wanted to uninstall and re-install to see if that would fix it. Used
the uninstall file that it suggested I use to uninstall and everything
seemed okay. Successfull uninstall. I then went to reinstall and it a window
popped up and stated that the drivers were installed for this device and
that I should uninstall them before I reinstall. I looked in 'add/remove
programs and it wasn't there. I looked in the 'program files' directory and
saw no folder with the Linksys name. I ran msconfig and saw nothing in the
startup. I looked in process..nothing. I used a registry cleaner..nothing. I
used 'regedit' to find files with Linksys, WLAN, WRT54GS, and Broman and
deleted all associated files. I even went to a 'DOS' window to look for the
folder..nothing. I cannot reinstall until the system is cleared of all
associated files obviously. And I did check the Device Manager for
drivers..and nothing again.
Don't know what else to try. I am down to a 'wipe and reload' or...not? Any
ideas? Thanks
in advance for any help.
