So, my old wireless internet card doesn't seem to want to work with my new computer. It's either due to Window's 7, or the PCI slot on the new computer...

A little help perhaps from the more technologically minded people here?

Wireless card is the Belkin Wireless G Desktop Card F5D7000 Ver 5100. Windows 7 is Home Premium, 64 bit.

I've tried different drivers, and installing them different ways, but to no avail. The card gets power, the light on it marked "pwrnk" lights up when I start up the computer, but then it turns off. But, the light on it marked "act" (which flashes on and off when using the internet), stays dimly lit, as it does when the card is getting power and working normal, as now. But when it IS working correctly, as now, the "pwrnk" stays on, and flashes on and off steadily when working, but not connected.

I tried the wireless card in both open PCI slots in the new computer, did the same thing in both. One of the PCI slots is blocked by the fan on the video card though, and the wireless card barely fits in it as it is...

This is being posted from my old computer, with the same wireless card, and it's working fine, so it is not the card it's self, possibly a compatibility issue with Windows 7 perhaps.

So, any advice?
