Hi all. Just installed XP SP2 for the second time as the first installation decided to randomly pack up and not even boot before I got a blue screen of death. Guess that's windows for you.
Anyways. I get this problem when trying to connect to my home wireless network (password protected). It works absolutely fine in OS X - full signal, perfect. However, when I try to connect in XP I see it in the windows "available wireless networks" but on attempting to connect it claims the network is no longer accessible before it even gives me a chance to enter the password.
I had this problem the first time I installed XP, and after hours of tinkering around with drivers I found online for the AR5008 card, I stumbled upon one that was bundled with 'Atheros client utility' which allows you to set up wireless profiles for different networks. This solved the problem the first time round. Now, I cannot for the life of me remember where I got it. Has anyone else ever had this problem? If anyone has a link for the utility I'd be v grateful.
Thanks for reading.
