Driver Install Problem
I have had this wifi adapter for over two years now, I think. I had lost the driver CD and needed to reinstall the drivers, but since the CD was missing I had to download the driver's to a USB and blah blah blah. When I ran the setup genie for v2.2.0.4, it says that some apps_common cannot be found by the systeM. So now I have no wifi on my PC, because it won't install the driver. Please help! It says
Feature: Application
Component: Apps_common
File:
Error: The system cannot find the file specified.

There are drivers and a manual for the WNA3100 somewhere at the end of this link:

When I ran the setup genie for v2.2.0.4What did you actually run? (The download has a couple of options.) Genie, a word that Netgear throws around willy nilly, could mean anything.
Are you sure you need Netgear drivers? Many people find that the adapters do fine with the stuff that comes with Windows. Just plug it in and see what happens.
