Installed Windows XP as a dual-boot partition with Windows 7. No drivers will install?

I had Windows 7 and have just created a Windows XP partition. My computer is an HP Pavillion dv6000. Now, none of the drivers provided on the hp site will install. The only driver of particular interest to me is my wireless network adapter, but what gives! Does it have something to do with it being the F drive, rather than the C drive?

"No - it should not make a difference what so ever (unless they use a custom, very bad installer). Try re-downloading the driver and remember that the Windows 7 and XP drivers will be different.

If you have a problem, try looking up who actually makes the device (Intel, Broadcom, Realtek etc.) and go to their site directly and download the latest drivers."
