If you look at the table here: http://linux.junsun.net/intersil-prism/IDtable.html

You can see what goes with what per component ID. If your drivers don't
list the component ID then I would probably make an educated guess and
try it with the WinUpdate utility.

The WinUpdate utility will then tell you which component ID you have before
it flashes the card. Just make sure it's correct.

I upgraded once from 1.4.2 to 1.4.9, and again from 1.4.9 to 1.7.4. So far
(two days) 1.7.4 is incredibly stable, but I don't do HostAP.
