If you open the Device Manager in XP you'll see a Yellow Triangle with a Black Exclamation Mark through it telling you that the driver for that Hardware is not installed.
To get to the Device Manager in XP left click on Start, right click on My Computer and from the drop down Menu Left Click on Proprieties. Then Left Click on the Hardware Tab and then when the window opens left click on Device Manager.
You can get the driver for this device from HP or Broadcom but you will need the correct Model Number to get it at HP. You can however start your search here
