I recently had an issue with a Sony VAIO PCG-7U1N (VGN-FJ12B / W) running an XP (SP3) system that had some ancient drivers on board for the wireless LAN card LAN-Express AS IEEE 802.11g miniPCI Adapter. After a number of hours trawling Google and several failed driver downloads, I managed to locate some information which in turn allowed me to successfully locate and update the driver. This allowed me to access WPA2 - PSK protocol and the AES encryption I was after in the first place.
I figure I might post this out there so in the future people trying to locate the driver can do so easily.. Hopefully they find this post.
The card happily accepts the drivers for the Atheros AR2425 chipset.
So find the 802ABG_Atheros_v5_1_1_9 file and install it. Good Luck
