No connection with WPA PSK - TKIP protection in Vista

Despite all the efforts, I have not been able to connect to a router that has a WPA PSK -
TKIP protection. I am using Windows Vista. I have read that this is one of Vista's
unresolved issues, and a registry key change is the only way to fix it. Is it true ? Is
there a workaround ?? Some help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I tried to get to the registry path mentioned in the Microsoft article but I got stuck in
the "GUID" thread: how do I know which one is which ?? There are many keys coded in hex
values. :-(

It's hard to find computer support especially if you're a small business. Chances are small businesses don't employ their own IT professional; rather, they look for outside sources to help them. IT consulting then becomes a reasonably priced, professional source that's perfect for small businesses.

==================================

If you can get dhcp from that router without security,
probably the registry issue is not relevant.
