I recently bought a couple of CM9 minipci cards. They work like a treat under FreeBSD 5.4 but my problem arises when trying to use Windows 2003 Server. None of the drivers I can find seem to work properly under 2003. And definately none of the Atheros Client Utility versions I have tried have done anything.

The card is a 802.11a/b/g minipci card based on the Atheros 5004x chipset. I was hoping that it was going to be a matter of swapping out the old card (another atheros based card - but only 802.11b/g - and not 100mw like the cm9) - but alas that didn't quite go to plan.

So has anyone got a working driver / utility for Windows 2003?? I would really like to keep using this card as it is heaps better than the one it replaced.
