The latest drivers from Atheros, who make the wireless chip on this card, can be found from this link: http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t14858.html (http://www.laptopvideo2go.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t14858.html). I've tried 7.7.0.233 and 7.6.1.244 and they both work perfectly in Windows XP 64-bit. Hope this is of use to other people.
