It's really trickey to get some hardware to work in linux. You can try using your windows driver using Ndiswrapper. Also you may want to try Ubuntu linux it is very good at detecting hardware and getting everything to work.

I've never used ndiswrapper before, will try it, but i'm not gonna use Ubuntu, tried it once and I don't like it...
