Step 1: Open a command line Terminal (Applications, Accessories, Terminal) and type "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils" followed by "Enter", which installs a utilities package for running Ndiswrapper, a program bundled with Ubuntu for running Windows drivers. If you do not have Internet access, follow the link in Resources titled "Installing Packages (Without Internet Access).
Step 2: Type "echo -e "blacklist bcm43xx\nblacklist b43\nblacklist b43legacy\nblacklist ssb" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" in Terminal and press "Enter." This step make the drivers conflict impossible.
Step 3: Type "sudo ndiswrapper -i ~/drivers/drivername.inf" (replacing /drivers/drivername.inf with the location and name of your driver) and press "Enter." Type "ndiswrapper -l" into Terminal and press "Enter." If the driver was correctly installed, you get one of the following messages: "Installed ndis drivers: (name of driver) driver present, hardware present" or "(name of driver) : driver installed device ({Chipset ID}) present."
