The Windows drivers are 32-bit and will not work with a 64-bit kernel. As well, ndiswrapper will not compile cleanly in 64-bit. I also have a Broadcom 802.11g integrated card in my Compaq R3000Z (also an AMD64 machine). There has been some talk of Windows x64 beta drivers for these wireless cards. If ndiswrapper can be modified to compile in 64-bit (should be possible), then these could *potentially* be used with that. Tests will need to be done to see if it will work. Of course, if you want to use the i386 version instead, you should be able to get ndiswrapper to work. But, I figure there is Windows if I want to run a 32-bit OS. Jonathan
