Have just installed an Orange Livebox and have tried to install a Belkin
Wireless G USB Network Adapter. For some reason after I had run the
Installation CD-ROM, and had plugged the adapter in to my pc, as instructed,
a message came up saying the hardware may not be installed properly.  I tried
the get an internet connection with the wireless adaptor but no luck. I
phoned Belkin support who told me to uninstall, but I can't! There is no
'uninstall' option on the cd and when I attempt to uninstall via add/remove
programs, a window entitled Installshield Wizard pops up and disappears very
quickly and then nothing happens and the program is still there. I tried to
tell them this but they just told me to take it back to the shop, it must be
faulty. I did this, but still the same problem. Can anybody please suggest
any way that I can uninstall so that I can start again from scratch?

Many thanks TAJJ

Try reinstalling the software, and then uninstalling.   Perhaps the
installation process didn't finish correctly.

Take the card out. Log to the Comuter Mangement/Device Manger and
delete/Uninstall the entry for the card.
