Pretty important this

I think this is probably worth developing a bit further. There are people out there who really go for the open source ideal but for one reason or another are tied to Windows in certain circumstances (work and so on). If we really want this to take off, we need to remember that Windows really is out there and people (unfortunately!) do use it. There must be a way of syncing this with windows. If I was better at developing I would put my hand up for this, but unfortunately, I'm not.

Trying this I get "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

Neo is recognized by Windows, I get asked for a driver, I point to linux.inf and some installation is happening. Then at the end I get the error message "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

Unplugging and Plugging-In of the Neo is recognized fine by XP, but the same error occurs.

To reiterate the install procedure, one need to open device manager: 

c:\>set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
c:\>start devmgmt.msc

and then delete the Neo entries under network adapters.

Trying this I get "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

Neo is recognized by Windows, I get asked for a driver, I point to linux.inf and some installation is happening. Then at the end I get the error message "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

Unplugging and Plugging-In of the Neo is recognized fine by XP, but the same error occurs.

To reiterate the install procedure, one need to open device manager: 

c:\>set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
c:\>start devmgmt.msc

and then delete the Neo entries under network adapters.
