You might just try the support area at Belkin's website.

thanx lightstar - u have tried downloading drivers but pc still cant detect it 
You might try manually installing the driver in Device manager. What exactly happens when you plug it in to your USB port?
when i plug it in nothing happens - it doesnt light up i have tried all my usb ports but no joy
I hope you did not pay for it then, because it sounds to me like its broke. 
lol yes i did pay 4 it - its so frustrating
am i being dim - i have a mobile broadband usb dongle so got this belking so i can access wifi on my pc, do i need something else to make it work?
do you have a wireless router? also, some usb dongles don't have drivers for a 64 bit os. what specific model do you have?
loukeeya can you hook the belkin wifi directly to a usb port on the computer and not use the usb dongles?
oh havent tried that - maybe theres a conflict coz i got both plugged in
i got a belkin wireless g+usb adapter no router coz i use mobile broadband
Sorry to tell you, but if you do not have a wireless router in your home, your Belkin Wireless USB adapter is useless. It is made to connect with a wireless router.
oh well - am an artist so technical issues always beat me lol
so just so i am clear - i cannot use the wifi on my mobile broadband with the belking adapter?
That is correct. The Belkin G USB Wireless adapter is made to connect to a wireless signal, like that generated by a wireless router, but it will not connect to a mobile broadband service. A mobile broadband card only receives the signal generated by your mobile broadband service, it does not send out a signal that can be picked up by anythign else, it only receives a set signal from your mobile broadband ISP.
There is of course, the ability to connect via ad hoc (a node-to-node network), but that would not necessarily apply in this situation.
I would agree that if you plug it in and it doesn't light up (or prompt you to install drivers) the device is defective.
