From there install the stand alone driver. You don't need the built in netgear utilities. let windows handle it

Plemans--thanks for responding. Just a few minutes ago I had stumbled into a similar solution to yours when, while looking though my new PC I found the original download for the Genie. (My original installation Nighthawk disk had stopped reading--when I would put it in the reader the light would flash 3 times & then go dead but I could watch movies off a CD so the reader was good.)
The download had an autorun line. When I clicked on autorun it asked for a disk; I put the original disk in & it started to read. Within a few minutes I had the original Genie icon back on the desktop & it works.
