I installed the card with the actual linksys drivers by accident and now i can't remove them to install the ones for WiFiMe. If i uninstall them through the device manager and then go to scan for hardware changes, it automatically installs the linksys drivers. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

After you uninstall the Linksys drivers, go to your C:\WINDOWS\inf folder and find .inf file for the card and delete it. You can check which .inf is the correct one by opening it in Notepad.

What would i look for in the file, because there are lots in that folder and i'm not sure which one

Hmmmm yes... That is a problem. If you find your Linksys drivers from where you got them from (on a CD or a downloaded file), they should have a inf file. Find the inf file with the same file name in the C:\WINDOWS\inf folder and delete it. Otherwise you could try doing a search for all *.inf files that contain the word Linksys.
EDIT: I just downloaded the drivers off the Linksys website, it appears to be Rt2500.inf

I did the same thing. You can "Update" your drivers for the DS ones under the advanced tab in the device manager. Good Luck.
