    So, i have a problem with the install from Wireless Select Switch(WLSS) 2.0.0.2 under Windows XP 64-bit. I have first installed Wireless Select Switch and then Intel Wireless 4965AGN Driver 12.1.1.0, but Intel Proset WiFi say me, that the Hardware Switch is off and he is on. :(
    So, i have found the problem - Compal Embedded Sytem Control was not installed-is as unknown device in device manager. After install from WLSS in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data are new tree folders: XP32,Vista32 and Vista64. So, i have manual install vista64 driver, but is not working,say me that the driver is for other OS, the same with xp 32 driver( in diference with xp 32-bit is WdfCoInstaller01005.dll not dispayed under Device Manager->System Devices->Compal Embedded Sytem Control->driver and in the registry the key HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\emsc.sys is missing, i have imported from xp 32bit, but not work).

    Have anyone found a solution?

    So, i have by my self found a solution. In the device manager was 2 unknown devices, one was ACPI/ifx0102 - the Infineon TPM( not activated in the BIOS), and the other was ACPI\cpl0002 unknown device - hardware wireless switch. I have installing wireless select switch 2.0.0.2 and then from the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Vista64 installing the driver for ACPI/cpl0002 through device manager. After reboot work the hardware wireless switch with intel 4965agn driver 12.4.3.0, the driver for the wireless card must installed bevor.

    Here is the program wireless select switch 2.0.0.2 with the driver: http://rapidshare.com/files/275587552/Wireless_Select_Switch_2.0.0.2.rar.html

    The same is under Windows 7 RTM Build 7600 x64, but the driver folder is C:\ProgramData\Vista64 and is hidden folder. In the control panel( View by: large icons)->folder options->View you must enable "show hidden files, folders and drives" and then in device manager manual installing the drivers after install from wireless select switch 2.0.0.2

    I have windows 7 ultimate 64 bit and I can get it the wireless select switch to work. I am not so good to computers so can anyone explain step by step the way. I have installed wlss 2.0.0.1 (cant find version 2.0.0.2) and I have found the "ACPI\cpl0002 unknown device - hardware wireless switch.". But when I try to manual update the driver it will not do it. Please can someone help me. I have installed the wireless card driver. Its irritating not to be able to use the wireless network.
    Sorry for my english - I am from danmark.
