yah its prolink adsl modem setup exe for vista.
when i run the setup exe it says "Vista need to be rebooted for the adsl modem setup to complete." and privide two options, restart now, or restart lator.

now the madness of this vista design i found is (if i am correct) after restart, the default vista hardware installation setup continues and ask ing for the diriver cd, since i downloded the driver i dont have a cd, so i choose 'browser for file location" and if i browser, i have only that setup file is there to supply. but i know it was asking for a ini or somthing.

so a weird issue this is right?

I'm a bit confused as to whether you are using XP or Vista?
In your specs it says XP, in your product it says vista?
