This means that it's possible there's a Windows 7 driver that's a better fit for your hardware available from your actual device manufacturer. Try using a Windows Vista driver. Windows Vista drivers will often work in Windows 7 because of the similarity between the two operating systems.

Drivers are small pieces of software that contain the instructions and function sets for a hardware device. Each hardware device has it's own unique driver that instructs the device how to communicate with other hardware devices and the operating system.
Drivers are instructions. A driver instructs a CPU processor , how to communicate with a hard-drive. In the same vein, a driver provides the instructions for communication between a hardware device and software. Drivers create compatibility. Without drivers, a computer is incomplete. With a strengthened foundation of compatibility between hardware and hardware, and hardware and software, the speed and performance of all individual working parts increases with significant notice.
Driver software for existing hardware devices is in constant development, even after the release of newer hardware devices. The hardware developer researches new ways to improve the physical hardware device by making changes to the driver that improve efficiency. The driver update is distributed at no cost in a package hosted on the hardware device manufacturer's website. However, navigating through an entire website to find a single file package can be frustrating and unfruitful for some.
Given that the driver is found, it typically requires manual installation. Developers are challenged when testing driver improvements. The goal is to improve speed and performance while maintaining and even improving stability and compatibility with other hardware and software components. Yet users do not benefit from these enhancements because they cannot obtain and install the updates. Drivers provide compatibility, but some users are inclined to feel otherwise. Many novice users find drivers, their purpose and their maintenance confusing and a hassle.
Yet the greater waste of time is waiting 10 minutes for a computer to boot up completely, just so you can check your email. Drivers installed at the factory are quickly replaced with better, more up-to-date drivers that driver software developer's produce after the initial release of the device.
But, people are not machines that all know how to find, download and install new drivers. However, while more advanced users might find this an easy task, most would not even be able to describe the device in detail, let alone update it's driver. This presents a problem for the implementation of drivers. Updated drivers can't be used unless installed. Users who don't have the knowledge to do this when their drivers become out-of-date or worse, corrupted, are often left with malfunctioning or inoperable hardware.
At that time, there were many needed improvements, but a simple, user-friendly solution for managing drivers was needed badly. Unforeseen driver conflicts can cause system instability, device malfunctions, or worse, cause your PC to stop working entirely. There are so many different devices installed on today's computers that even expert PC technicians rely on automated tools to do the dirty work for them.
This helps guarantee your computer won't encounter errors from incorrect or out-of-date drivers and resolves any driver conflicts you may not know about.

This update applies to both bit and bit versions of Windows 7. After much troubleshooting and trial-and-error, I found that the issue is caused by Windows XP itself. SP2 supports WPA2 after installing the necessary software. The easiest method is to update to SP3, as this provides WPA network access natively, with zero configuration and no additional software installation required. Changing to WEP is not recommended, as it is easily hackable.
There are tons of tutorials online anyone can follow and crack your password and use your internet connection for free. However, in cases where updating your laptop to SP3 is not possible, or this can be used.
Another probable cause for this error message and being unable to connect to WPA secured wireless access points is lack of support for these encryption protocols, by the hardware network chipset. Older chipsets may not support WPA and WPA 2, search online for your network chipset technical specs to know if this is the case.
In this case, the only solution for you is to upgrade the WLAN chipset possible on desktop PCs fitted with Wifi cards, not very viable on a laptop or change your encryption method to WEP. In some cases, the wireless LAN chipset manufacturer might have released newer drivers that add support for these newer security protocols. Fixes for previous editions are there. Security updates.
