wireless networking on toshiba m200

Wireless networking on a Toshiba M200

Has anyone been able to make the Atheros AR5001X (built in) card connect to a wireless network. The hardware installs correctly in Device Manager, but the wizard says there are no wireless networks to connect to.
If I try to create a manual connection, it asks for the adapter, and then the next screen just says "an unexpected error occured"
Any suggestions would be welcomed :)

you might give the XP drivers a go.

I am having the same issue but with Tecra M2. It used to work fine with Beta1 Also I have two hard drives, one for XP and other for Vista, if I POP the XP drive, the same adapter connects fine, while on Vista it does not even show any signal strength, let alone connecting to the network
Is this still a driver problem or something else?????
