Windows XP SP3
posted by lore51 on Jun 20, 2008
It seems XP SP3 doesn't play nice with the G DWL-6510. I installed SP3 and got the blue screen. One very informed and technical blog (Jesper's) suggested that SP3 doesn't drive some wireless cards.
Before SP3, though, I was experiencing increasingly frequent wireless disconnects, though my fiancee's laptop with built-in wireless had no simultaneous disconnects, so it's likely not the wireless router we share.
Am I on the right track? Is there a fix for SP3 with this card? Or just get a new card?

ApprenticeHello, Lore.
Did you mean DWL-6510 or DWL-G510?
I have some comments for the last one; if it is not your PCI-card, I hope the solution is alike, at least.
My PCI-card is G510 version C and I recently posted a comment on a certain Internet Forum. See what I wrote:
First of all: D-Link simply mistreated all the costumers who bought version Cx.
The best thing to do:
1- Get the latest drivers from Australia site - www.dlink.com.au - (look for SUPPORT and not "quick find").
2- Specially for Win XP-SP3, try the USA site; you will need to follow this path because the update file is very hidden on the site: click support / FAQ / search for "G510 SP3" and see the answer for the only question that is there (so far); download the newest driver for SP3; this driver has no installer; you will have to use it as an update if you have already a driver installed (click "properties" and "update driver" on the device located at control panel / system / hardware); if you have no driver already istalled, you will have to do the opposite of DLink directions: install phisically the card before installing driver, click start / control panel / system / hardware and search for a "?" sign, click on it and provide it the downloaded driver.
Good luck!!
