You don't need windows to get the windows drivers downloaded, go to the device manufacturer's website to locate and download the drivers, then you can use cabextract to extract the necessary files from the exe archive.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you asking to find a driver for your usb wireless adapter to work on windows. If so, this is the wrong forum for that type of question.

Do what mfillpot suggested.

Istimsak,
The requester is attempting to download the windows XP drivers to load them using the nsdiwrapper in lunux, which is necessary for some obscure wireless cards.

As a warning, ndiswrapper is basically like a driver emulator, so some conversions may work, but you should not expect perfect compatibility.

Isn't it used to load the firmware drivers?

It may or may not have the ability to load firmware. It is not present on my Fedora 15 install, so I'm assuming the firmware I need loads in other ways. The last time I needed it was when I was trying to install a windows driver for a rtl8187b wlan card. Which didn't work.

The Summary reads:
Summary : Ndiswrapper wraps around Windows WLAN drivers within Linux.

So, I'm assuming wlan drivers was its main purpose.
