mdc8021x.sys driver

i am lookin for a version older than the file I have since the file I have has been causing problems. Just telling me a place to get it is fine but it must be free. My current version is unknown besides the fact that I remember in installation that it was a 3 series driver. Anyways if you know how to find the version I can find it and then tell you but a link to a site with drivers would be nice. This is rather urgent as I hope to be able to go and do some wirelss network searching tommorow..

I instlaled the bad drivers as th first ones.
Check in the driver details if it lests the driver version.
In any get the name of the *.sys driver file from here and rtight click in explorer to get version. When you have the version, that's when we can know what to look for.
http://members.driverguide.com/index.php try drivers guide all so the manufacture of the device may have the old drivers on there web site have a look for a link to older drivers
I think I will ned a newere one anyways I hope someone can close the points as I have found that there are no older drivers for the version I have and there is only one set released. Thanks for your guys helpanyways.
can you tell us what problems you are having as we may be able to help you fix it
I had problems with the ndis.sys and when I renamed that file everything worked fine. I already had it diagnosed as haivng this be the problem. Is there a generic driver I could use?
