Pain in the neck in Vista.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\
Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}\
You will find subkeys labelled 0000,0001 etc
You will need to open each subkey to find the adapter you want, I did
try using find in edit but it didn't work, and for example the G202
under "Driverdesc" gives Zyxel G-202 Wireless USB Adapter.
If you then look at "NetCfgInstanceId" you will find a GUID string that
corresponds to one in the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\
