Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini Card Can't Use WPA2?

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows XP SP2.  My wireless card driver is for the "Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN Mini Card", and I haven't been able to connect to wireless networks that use WPA2 encryption of any type (personal or enterprise).  I suspect that this driver is to outdated for newer routers, so I assume that I'll need a newer driver. Are my assumptions correct? Or, do I just need a compatible driver that supports WPA2 encryption?  Can anyone tell me where I could find a driver for this card that will allow me to connect to WPA2 encrypted networks?

Thank you!

First, you should be using Service Pack 3, not Service Pack 2.  That will fix the problem.  If you must continue with SP2 (which is dangerous), there's a WPA2 update you'll need:

My mistake, I verified that I am on SP3 (tried installing the update ejn63 suggested).  So it seems that i've been having these problems while on SP3.  I also forgot to mention that I am able to connect to unsecured networks with no problem.

Thx!
