I'm trying to connect to my school's wireless internet.. I
have all the info on how to configure the connection once
I get it ... but the problem is I can't set one up. I go
to add network connection in control panel (XP Pro) and I
can't find anything relating to wireless internet. I've
tried installing SP1 and SP2 and my device manager says
the card is working properly... I just don't know what to
do!
Any advice?

Hi,

Check to make sure your Wireless Zero Configuration service is started.

Click on Start -> Run
then type in services.msc and then hit OK

The Services window will open up, now scroll down to the Wireless Zero
configuration on the right window panel. Double click on it.
And then make sure the startup type is on Automatic and then click on the
Start button.

Now click on the OK button.

Now go to your network properties and you should see your Wireless Network
Connections. Right click it, and then choose properties. When the
properties page comes up, you should see a Wireless tab. You can then put
in your wireless settings in there.
