10038 Socket Operation on non-socket

11-17-2004, 12:26 PM

I received an error message (10038 Socket operation on non-socket) when
trying to install a wireless network adapter (linksys wpc54g) on my gateway
5300 laptop. No MS knowledge base suggestions on a fix. Anyone have a
suggestion on solutions? Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling
(unsuccessfully-same result).

Hi there,
Same exact problem with wpc54g. Using Win98SE. Linsys says
it's a MS problem. Did you ever figure this out?
