When you open the hardware tree from Control Panel, System, Hardware, can you see the wireless card? What does it say? Any ! showing up?

What you can try is to download the latest update to Boot Camp from Apple for XP. Boot Camp 2.2 Note that you must have Boot Camp 2.1 installed first and also note that all Boot Camp updates must be run from within Windows.

That will install new drivers for XP and it includes the wireless drivers. Let us know if that works.

Regards.
