Using a disk with Service Pack 3 already on saves time later. After install of XP, install a 'Tenda' or similar wireless adapter -this will allow you connect to the internet.
Download latest updates from Microsoft site first, otherwise other downloads will not work.
Download 'DriverMax' this will allow you install one driver a day (free version). But first change the screen resolution to, at least 1280x720. Should be no need for display driver.
Download wireless driver from DriverMax.
Download 'AVG' anti-virus free from 'Filehippo'.

"unable to find certificate" no internet
First, click on the wireless icon in your taskbar and under Related Tasks, chooseChange advanced settings.
Now click on the Wireless Networks tab and select the network in the list at the bottom. Click onProperties once you select the wireless network that is having problems.
Click on the Authentication tab and now uncheck the Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network box. If the box was checked, then that was why you were getting the “unable to find a certificate to log you on to the network” message because Windows is looking for one, but your wireless router is not setup for certificate security.
