AirPcap and Wireshark 3.03

I cannot get Wireshark to recognize either my AirPcap Classic or TX. To troubleshoot I have:

  1. validated that they are recognized in Cain and Abel and in the AirPcap Control panel
  2. Installed Wireshark with:
    1. both WinPcap 4.1.3 and NPcap 0.9982 (NPcap both in compatibility mode and NOT in compatibility mode)
    2. Installed only NPcap and removed WinPcap
    3. Installed only WinPcap and removed NPcap
  3. done a Google search for the problem and noted the prior question and answer here, plus a few other places, all to no avail.
  4. Completely disabled any virus protection. This is validated because Cain and Abel were able to install and work.
  5. When AirPcap first came out, I was also unable to make it work in Wireshark

I am running Windows 7, with the latest patches as a domain member
