Hi, I do dual boot the machine.. I had problems with the internal wireless, some Broadcom chip, I could never make it connect to a network reliably and some it refused to connect properly at all.
The dongle and wireless works perfectly in XP, although if I leave the dongle in while booting up the network selection program has a hissy fit and throws errors, yet the connection works fine. I'll have a go at my Fiancee's and see if it works fine there.
