Bill

Did you follow these instructions exactly as they are written?

1. Download the SoftPaq .EXE file to a directory
on your hard drive.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the
on-screen instructions.

NOTE: After the files are unpacked, the Setup program
runs automatically. If the setup program (isetup.exe)
needs to be run manually, look for it in the
download directory.

Saving to disk takes longer than to directly download and install. You could
try installing in Safe Mode. Might be something there.

The note suggests installation is not always straightforward.

You said this earlier "The wireless adaptor is not functioning properly." In
what way is it malfunctioning?
