Ah okay. So when you wrote "re-adding _STA set to 0x08", you actually
meant *this* patch. Right? (I don't really understand the reference to
0x08.)

So I take you tested *this* patch with Windows 7, and it was satisfied.
Good.

Unfortunately I can't help you at all with kernel driver development,
but I do sense a kind of dependency hell here (maybe even with a cycle
in it) where whatever you try to implement, someone says "please do X
first". :/
