My friend's notebook has an SMC wireless card w/ weird SMC software that seems to make it work pretty poorly.
If I just remove the software is that enough or do I need to change some configurations for windows to use the card? (I've never had a wireless card so I'm new at this stuff).

You could try removing the software as it should work as long as you have the correct drivers installed. Make sure it's properly detected under your hardware drivers and configure it with XP's Wireless Connection tool.
I removed Dell's wireless software from my laptop and the Linksys wireless software from my desktop. They both still connect and configure fine. -
I always use windows to configure the wireless, and never install the software from the company. all you need it the drivers so that the computer recognizes the cards. from there its standard setup in windows.
Do I Need the Wireless Card's Software?
