Which hardware version? v1, v2 or v3?
It's Athros based:
AR5001 chipset.
v1 and v2 use AR5212.
v3 uses AR5213A.

Make sure you don't get it mixed up with the older WG511 which uses a
Prism chipset.

Airodump does NOT talk to the wireless card, so your question is
rather nonsensical. Try reading the Aircrack-NG pages again,
especially the driver compatibility page at:
<http://aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compatible_cards>
<http://aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=compatibility_drivers&DokuWiki=3df33fd e1e87722a2c2a609460842cc8>

As for Vista:

Microsoft Vista is NOT officially supported at this point in time.
See this troubleshooting tip for a possible workaround.

and:

How to get airodump-ng to work under Microsoft Vista?
The following fix has reportedly worked for some people:
What you have to do is right click on airodump-ng.exe, select
properties, compatibility, and check run in compatibility mode
for Windows XP. Also, check the box at the bottom that says to
run as administrator.
