Windows - Internet Connectivity Problems with Windows via Boot Camp

Hello,

So, Just got OS X and decided to install XP using BootCamp

Got XP running, but I can't connect to the internet via either wireless (can't find the correct driver) or a direct Ethernet connection.

In addition, I tried running the Bootcamp update program but for some reason it wont run...nor will any program.

Not really sure what I did/ am doing wrong here.

Working on a 2007 MBP 2.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.

Made a 20gig partition FAT32 formatted. (I've heard FAT32 vs NTFS shouldn't matter, could be wrong)

Any help with ANY of the problems would be amazing.

Thank You!

Have you installed the Windows drivers by inserting your Leopard disk?
