Wifi doesn't work by simply installing the drivers. It actually requires Hardware modification. Apparently there was a disign error on the original Aigo, which prevents Wifi to work on Windows XP. It looks like its something to do how the hardware is powered. Its works fine on Linux but on XP hardware power seems to be handled differently so it makes it freeze. Still waiting for a full confirmation on this, but everything points to be true... All the best, Joao HI,
