Why does it conflict?  What do you mean?  What do you see in Device
Manager?  Any yellow (!) next to the network device?  If the drivers
aren't installed correctly, try to install them correctly.

Here's what I've done:  if you have a yellow'ed device in drive
driver, remove it.  Then do Control Panel -> Add New Hardware.  You
should be prompted to install this device.  If you let it pick a
device, try installing whatever device it picks.  If that still
doesn't work, you may find that after Setup ran it uncompressed/copied
some drivers a program directory for the card - try browsing to the
.inf files you might find there.  Sometimes it is just a matter of
installing/re-installing the drivers a few times to get it right, even
in XP.
