Wireless Internet Not Working Using Windows XP w/ boot campI installed windows XP with boot camp and everything went perfect. The only problem is the wifi doesn't work with the windows XP side. It doesn't even have the option to detect wireless conections.
Any help would be appreciated.
Oh and 1 other question, on the windows side, is there a way to use the track pad to click instead of the button? I like clicking the trackpad better than the button.

You'll need to go into windows control panel and set up the wireless network manually. Not as easy as with the Apple side of things.
As for the track pad I believe that if you lft the left finger off and tap with the right it works as a right click. I don't do it so I'm only going from memory of something I read elsewhere."Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain."

Ive Got It !!!Hey
I have been having the same problem with no wireless on xp in bootcamp with MBP
here is what I did
Google 7.7.0.329
the first result I get is
Atheros AR5xxx/AR9xxx Series Wireless Network Diver 7.7.0.329 Windows XP(x32/x64)
download that file
go to OPEN NETWORK SETTINGS
Right click your wireless card should be atheros....something or another....
now
go to properties the General tab Select Configure-on the right at the top
in the new window select the driver tab
select update driver
select install manually and point to where ever you downloaded the driver above to ....Voilia...it worked for me...i think that is all the steps...HOPE I HELPED!!
