I have a Wireless network at the house and a new to me XP desktop. I have in inventory a Dynex DX-WGUSB wireless usb dongle and would like to set that up to work on my network. I don't have the installation CD and downloading the drivers didn't seem to help any. Can anyone tell me the best way to make this solution work?

Thanks,

Unfortunately that Dynex dongle is a terrible piece of equipment. It universally fails to work in every system configuration we've tried it in. I hate to say it, but my recommendation is to get a new wireless dongle. There is one from netgear that works quite well and has super easy installation and only costs 40$.

what happens when it is just attached to the desktop? sometimes the generic drivers XP applies works.

that loading the drivers didn't help any, do you mean that the device has failed to install? or do you mean that it is installed but you cannot detect any wireless networks?
give us a clue what problem you are having and we might be able to help you
