I've installed the current stable Wireshark release (1.0.1) on my DELL D830 laptop with Windows Vista as OS.

Even if I start Wireshark as administrator, my wireless card (Intel 4965AGN) is not detected. On the contrary, the same wireless card is correctly detected when the OS is Windows XP.

Do you have any idea about this problem?

It's probably a WinPcap problem.

Try downloading WinDump:

and see whether you have the same problem with it. If so, this is a WinPcap problem, and should be reported to the WinPcap developers:
