Jonathan,

You have bcm4311 in your laptop, we haven't find a 64bit broadcom
windowsXP driver for bcm4311 that is "SSE2 instructions clean", it seems
the 64bit windows XP driver mentioned on OpenSolaris/Ndis page is the
only 64bit WinXP driver we can "wrap". But before it is released from
Microsoft, bcm4311 is not available in the world. For more information
about "SSE2 instruction issue", you can search old mails in this community.

Thanks,

Michael
