DW1470 WiFi card wont load with ndiswrapper on 2008.1


I have tried the suggestions posted elsewhere of unloading the bcm43fwcutter module and blacklisting ssb and bcm43xx but to no avail. I crash with the error "the device is already configured with the ssb driver". Anyone had any success getting this card to work with 2008.1 on there Dell laptop.
