Trying to install DWA-111 on a Windows XP PC with Service Pack 2.
When inserting dongle into USB port the PC says that there is a problem
with the hardware, and upon trying to install using DLINK CD, it says that
the installation has failed.
I have tried totally un-installing and re-installing and the error just
re-occurs.
Upon further investigation, the device manager is saying that netr73.sys
is missing or corrupt. This should reside in
c:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\netr73.sys.
Tech Support at DLINK suggest re-installing, but again this doesnt work,
they also suggest downloading latest firmware/driver from the website which
I have done, still to no avail.
Any suggestions ?
I have been able to get the dongle to work on another PC, so doesnt appear
to be an issue with either the transmission or dongle.

Seem's from Googling the file you mention, that D-Link are using a ralink
chipset in this device.
I've had problems with Peenet kit which used Ralink, and the Vista OS - but
non with XP machines?
I would try re-naming the corupt file installed "old" and trying to copy
"n" paste the same file off the working PC?????
