wifi ssid not opening

[brockzilla]

So I've been searching for ways to get my media library to work here. I've tried so many versions of xbmc. I have issues because I'm on widows 8 pro, and only have smb sharing to my knowledge. Even used Plex, but that took forever to play a video. so I'm trying out xbian, and I'm running into an issue with WiFi. My wipi dongle worked on all other versions, but here, I go into xbian settings, and I try to select an ssid, but nothing shows. A window never even pops up. Ethernet works fine though. I'm at a loss here.

Scratch that, a window does come up, it says its scanning, but after that nothing comes up.
