Wireless Adapter issue with Vista...

Hi there,

I would really appreciate some help on this one.
We recently purchased a new PC for the office, its a packard bell running Vista home premium. (one of those PC World deals)

We also have a wireless router that we use for our laptops with no problems.
I thought what I would do is buy a Belkin N Mimo Wireless USB adapter.

This seems to be a rather big mistake, firstly the PC cannot see any networks, I tried Turning on Network Discovery (didnt know if it would help but noticed it was on on the laptop) and for some reason even that is an issue, I see that its off, so I click on it, it gives me the option to turn it on, I click it and I click apply, it goes through the usual drama of asking me to confirm this, I say yes, and then it just goes back to being off!

Could this be part of the problem?

Any suggestions would really help as I am running out of ideas and patience with the whole thing!

Many thanks,

Ant
