A brief news about my old topic.
I realize in these days that under Vista the driver is not active after a boot.
I I boot Vista and quicly I open a cmd.exe and run colinux, I have the
problem that the driver is not active.
If I wait some seconds, about 30 seconds, the driver become active and
all is OK.

I correct what I say in my original message ... I don't have to
uninstall and remove the driver ...
I only have to wait a moment and then run colinux.

Bye,
Paolo
