One of my friend recently gave his old Encore ENUWI-N3 wireless adapter, since he was not using it anymore. So, after I tried to install it on my Windows 7 64bit edition OS, I am getting some problem with the installation. I have checked that the drivers are installing fine on Windows XP but not on Windows 7 64bit? Where can I get the driver for this wireless adapter for Window 7 64bit? Any ideas
Have you tried downloading its driver for Windows 7 64 bit from the official Encore website or even checked if there is any driver for this new OS? If this device is only able to run on a 32 bit driver then it will not work with a 64 bit operating system. The only left for you is to use the same wireless adapter on Windows XP, which is the only supported OS for it.
Have you tried installing the Encore ENUWI-N3 wireless adapter driver in compatability mode in your Windows 7 64bit. To do that, just right click on the setup.exe file and then click on Properties. After that click on the compatibility tab and then select Windows XP checkbox and press ok. Now double click on the driver file and see if that driver gets installed properly.
I would suggest that you should uninstall the driver first from your computer and after that disconnect the wireless adapter as well. After that install the drivers that is given in your CD and then plug the device in and then check if it is working on your Windows 7 64 bit edition operating system or not. Hope this helps.
