Hello

What version of Windows XP are you running? Your best bet is to have Windows XP Service Pack 3.

The issue is that the tablet will appear in Windows as a "storage device". The problem is that Windows XP will likely require a driver to understand that your tablet is a memory storage device.

It appears you have two options:

1. upgrade to Windows XP Service Pack 3, reboot the computer and then connect the tablet and see if the OS can recognize your device

2. remove the SD memory card from the tablet and, using a SD card reader on your PC (which you may need to purchase), insert the SD card into the card reader and use this method to transfer the files to the card. Return the card to your tablet.

It appears that Windows Vista, 7 and 8 will recognize your tablet automatically.

the answer is there from canon
win xp is so far out of date that canon has no drivers for that operating system
upgrade to vista , win 8 or best win 10 and the problem may be solved

your down grade is the problem
win xp and win 7 are no longer supported by Microsoft so any blips in the loading process are not fixed on line
Microsoft are pushing hard for everybody to use win 10 and company statements are saying that win 8 and later version will also not be supported in a few years time
it is possible that in downloading the driver from the manufacturer site (best idea) it is possible that you missed the bit ( suitable for win os win 7 ,8 vista, 10 ) that win xp was not on the list

Seems like you have a pretty old laptop. I'm guessing its got a wireless B card installed internally. And wireless B supports WEP most of the time. And if you're lucky the manufacturer of that wireless card may have an update to patch your card so that it will see WAP. Otherwise you can replace that internal card or get a usb / PCMCIA wireless card that supports at least wireless G standard.

You can use a wireless network to share Internet access, files, printers, and more. Or you can use it to surf the Web while you're sitting on your couch or in your yard. Plus, it's easier to install than you think.
There are 4 steps to creating a wireless network:
1.
Choose your wireless equipment
2.
Connect your wireless router
3.
Configure your wireless router
4.
Connect your computers
For Windows XP users, Windows XP Service Pack 2 is not required for wireless networking, but it does make things much easier. Service Pack 2 also helps protect you against hackers, worms, and other Internet intruders.

Connect your computers
If your computer does not have wireless network support built in, plug your network adapter into your USB port, and place the antenna on top of your computer (in the case of a desktop computer), or insert the network adapter into an empty PC card slot (in the case of a laptop). Windows XP will automatically detect the new adapter, and may prompt you to insert the CD that came with your adapter. The on-screen instructions will guide you through the configuration process.
Note: The steps below only apply if you're using Windows XP Service Pack 2. If you're running Windows XP and you don't have Service Pack 2 yet, plug your computer into your wireless router and download and install Windows XP Service Pack 2.
Windows XP should show an icon with a notification that says it has found a wireless network.
Follow these steps to connect your computer to your wireless network:
1.
Right-click the wireless network icon in the lower-right corner of your screen, and then click View Available Wireless Networks. If you run into any problems, consult the documentation that came with your network adapter. Don't be afraid to call their tech support.
2.
The Wireless Network Connection window should appear and you should see your wireless network listed with the network name you chose. If you don't see your network, click Refresh network list in the upper-left corner. Click your network, and then click Connect in the lower-right corner.
3.
Windows XP prompts you to enter a key. Type the encryption key that you wrote down earlier in both the Network key and Confirm network key boxes, and then click Connect.
4.
Windows XP will show its progress as it connects to your network. After you're connected, you can now close the Wireless Network Connection window. You're done.
Note: If the Wireless Network Connection window continues to show Acquiring Network Address, you may have mistyped the encryption key.

if im not mistaken u have to set up a network connection and save the settings and load them into the next computer u want to be linked. windows network wizard should explain it quite easily.

can you activate via telephone? I thought it gave you the option?

wow! thats a very nice wifi card. prism.

anyway, here is a link for your windows 2000.

this connects you to any wifi hotspot other than boingo.

cheers

Go to the ThinkPad Website

Put in the information for your computer and search for an audio driver. It will be a free download. Follow all of the instructions that come with the driver.

I would provide a direct link to the driver, but you did not list the specific Type of Thinkpad R60 that you own. There are many types. Also it may matter if you have XP SP1 or SP2.

She probably has both the Mimo Utility and the Windows XP Wireless Configuration Utility running at the same time.. Try disabling the Windows Configuration Utility and see if she can connect now..

Start > Run > Services.msc (OK)

Disable Windows Zero Wireless Configuration

Here is a visual explanation I found:
