Asus PCE-N15 driver problems

Hello,

previously i had my machine hardwired to my router where it worked just fine but where i've moved there is free wifi so i got this card. i've installed and reinstalled this card almost a dozen times trying it in different orders i.e. install software/driver, shutdown put card, reboot or simply put the card in install software/drivers. i tried using the utilities disc that came with the card and have also tried the drivers from asus's website and every time i diagnose it, i get a "there may be a problem with the driver." ive tried using the wps button to connect to the router also and that didn't work. i really dont think that it's an issue with the card itself because it seems to install the drivers just fine. i see the name of the card and everything in my adapters. i'd just like to avoid having to send it back.
