I ran into a gentleman on the Internet that told me he uses v 17b.22 RangeLan2 driver on his XP OS with SP2.

Might anyone else on here been able to get the RangeLan2 card working with XP?

This card is a great basic spectrum analyzer to find noise.

The latest driver for the RangeLan2 was written for Win2000.

But this fellow said it works on his XP computer.

Do I assume that an OS like XP is backwards compatible to accept hardware drivers written for Win 2000 and Win 98? In this case the hardware driver Win 2000 17b.22 written for the RangeLan2 card, works for you on your XP OS?

Thanks for any other help.
