Can't configure WPA on one of my XP laptops

I have two laptops, both XP Home SP2 with all security updates.

On one, I have a WPA-PSK wireless connection.

On the other, the only option that I am presented with is WEP.

What am I missing? From where do I download the missing component? Why
don't I have it already?

The problem probably is that the wireless adapter on the 2nd laptop
doesn't support WPA. See if there is a more recent driver available
from the manufacturer.

Hi
Windows does not decide on its own about WEP or WPA, the info comes from the
manfacturer drives.
