    Hello,

    I'm having difficulties installing a wireless usb wifi adapter (Realtek rtl8187).
    On my other pc (also Windows XP) it works perfectly.

    I keep getting this message;
    "Cannot Continue the Hardware Update Wizard"

    I've tried everything I could find on the internet including reinstalling Windows XP but it can't find the driver.
    Does someone knows what goes wrong here?


    Thank you!

    :confused:

    The messages I get;

    USB device not recognized

    And then when I try to update driver;

    Cannot continue the hardware wizzard
    The wizzard could not find a better match for your hardware than
    the software you currently have installed.


    Any tips for me?
