WPA not showing as possibity when adding a wireless network

[luis]

have set up my router to have WPA protection.
Have Xp in my notebook and in my desktop; in the notebook I can add the home
net and specify access via WPA... but in the desktop, the dropdown menu (in
the wireless networks | properties | wireless networks) only shows open or
WEP...

I have XP SP2 in both..

Any Help please?

TIA!

Hi,

Is this system using a wireless card? Is it 802.11g compatible, or only
802.11b? The latter does not support WPA, only WEP.
