Doug A. was working on supporting the newer firmware, but I don't know
how far he got with it.

You could set up scripts in XP to upgrade/downgrade the firmware on
boot and shutdown, but it'd be kinda painful and I don't know enough
about XP to do it.

Probably the easiest thing until support for the more recent firmware
gets in is to swap it out for a prism minipci card or something.
