are using x86 ubuntu or 64bit version? bearing in mind 32bit driver 99% not going work ndiswrapper in 64bit linux.
type lsusb terminal usb adapter plugged in. if says device , (no firmware) after it, point incorrect driver.
using ndisgtk (the gui version of ndiswrapper?) or typing commands youself;
i.e. ndiswrapper -i drivername
modprobe ndiswrapper
etc,etc?
if driver using correct , has been installed correctly ndiswrapper should see "wlan0" when type iwconfig terminal.
