Mine is working with Windows 7 using Intel WiDi. There is NO hardware requirement for Miracast (you can upgrade to 8.1), but WiDi requires that you have an Intel CPU with WiDi support, so far as I know.

Annoyingly, the bloody thing isn't working with Android, which is what I bought it for...

I have the same problem after I updated my ASUS Windows 7 laptop to Windows 10. Did you ever come up with a solution to use Miracast or another program with the adapter?
