Mostly in pirated win 7 wifi will not work perfectly...
so u need to download xp driver from website of ur laptop..
If you reinstall an operating system you will need to install the drivers again. You can download them to a USB now to save time. Make sure you at least download the network/Ethernet drivers.
Search the drivers on the internet or go directly to product's company's website.
If you have win7 why do you need XP? Best choice would be to keep win7 because its the best OS out so far, if you need to use XP win7 has a program called VirtualPC, that lets you run an OS inside an OS. You can run XP in another window but still have win7, you will just need an ISO file for XP on the program. Do a bit of research to find out about it, its a pretty useful program
