    Hi,
    I recently installed Windows XP on my Asus M51SN. The problem I have with the driver is that I think the WLAN-driver is not working as intended. I can connect to Internet through my ethernet-cable but I don't have the option to chose Wireless Connections through the Network Connections window.
    The network card is an Atheros L1 Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Controller according to the Network Connections window.

    download the driver directly from intel.com
    i think the m51 has a 4965 wifi module. intel.com downlad center would have your xp driver
