Unable to install drivers for AC1200 wireless dual band USB adapter for Win Vista

[RealJasonFong]

I have a USB adapter manufactured for TPLINK. I installed drivers for this on my Windows XP PC, and since I changed to using Ethernet, I decided to use this for my Windows Vista Fujitsu Laptop for watching films and TV shows on myTV, which is far away from my router. But, I could not install the drive for that USB adapter
! I tried a lot of times, and they failed: I let it load for 6 hours and it still did not install the drive! Please help as I really need it! 😀

That is strange I would think it would be win xp you would have issues getting drivers for. There is a lot of equipment that no longer even releases drivers for xp.

Pretty much you need to go to tplink site and try to find the drivers for win vista. If the do not offer a driver then you need to figure out which radio chipset is used by the device. You can then look at the chipset manufacture website and see if there are drivers.

Mostly you just have to be sure you get the correct file. This is like getting drivers for win10 32 bit vs win 10 64bit, they don't work if you install the wrong one.
