Good day fellows, I have the Nintendo USB Adapter but I also have Windows XP 64-bit edition, which is of course incompatible. Does anyone know if there are any custom-made drivers to accomodate this setup?

Well if they say you require Windows Xp whats the difference? its still windows Xp. they make no sense seeing though some PC's ive seen are like windows 2000 but work 40 times better than a Xp computer.
Ill stop rambling and get to the point. go to Nintendo.com.au and go Wi-Fi connection help. thats what helped me get connected.
once your on the site just go from there.

Lol, no. It DOES NOT work on 64-bit, it's been confirmed by Nintendo and myself when I tried it. That's why I need some specialised driver (if it exists).

From this Wikipedia document en.wikipedia.org/ it points to a faq that describe how the Buffalo driver can be modified to work with the Nintendo USB adapter. See section 4.4.2 of this article:

www.gamefaqs.com/

This might be what you need to do Mattster.

Argh, even that thing wasn't compatible with 64-bit. Thanks for trying, Finalfight. ^_^

Mattster, the only way it would work is if you had 64 bit drivers. so unless you (or someone else) can write the code then i'm afraid you won't be able to use it.

if you had the software then you could run Windows XP (i386) on a virtual machine and run your USB adapter off that.

Are you sure you don't just want to buy a wireless router? If you do, check its model at www.nintendowifi.com.au/ — the DS has poor wireless support, and a lot of routers aren't compatible with it at all.
