Linksys PCI Adapter with SRX WMP54GX no driver available

I am using the 64bit version of Vista Beta 2, and need a network card driver for the Linksys PCI Adapter with SRX WMP54GX. I checked the manufacturers website http://www.linksys.com/servlet/Satellite?childpagename=US%2FLayout&packedargs=page%3D2%26cid%3D1115416835852%26c%3DL_Content_C1&pagename=Linksys%2FCommon%2FVisitorWrapper&SubmittedElement=Linksys%2FFormSubmit%2FProductDownloadSearch&sp_prodsku=1122062238277 and no joy. I tried the vista upgrade advisor, and it said "Get driver from Microsoft Update". Where exactly should I be looking (bear in mind I can't connect to the internet from my Vista client)? I did some internet searches for the driver, but only found a link about someone else with the same issues.

I have the same situation, there is no working driver, and it appears that the chipset on the card is not used in any other device that might have a driver that would work. I'm extremely disapointed in cisco for this, i have sent them an email expressing this, i was told by linksys tech support they do not support 64 bit o/s either xp 64 or vista 64 and do not know when they might. Maybe microsoft will come to the rescue and make one, or if enough people complain to linksys/cisco something will happen, in the mean time, i've got an expensive wireless adapter i can't use in anything but 32 bit windows on my 64 processor. lol
