New MBP Isight driver not recognized in XP

Hello everyone,

I have the new 13" MBP and when attempting to install the isight driver in XP, I receive the following error: "The specified location does not contain information about your hardware"


In device manager, the following is listed for Hardware ID of the isight device:
Hardware IDs:
USB\Vid 05ac&Pid_8507&Rev_0419&MI02
USB\Vid 05ac&Pid_8507&MI02

The .inf only has these in it:
[Manufacturer]
%Apple%=Apple

[Apple]
%iSight.DeviceDesc%=iSight,USB\VID 05AC&PID_8503&MI00
%iSightUpdate.DeviceDesc%=iSightUpdate,USB\VID 05AC&PID_8501&MI00
%iSightUpdate.DeviceDesc%=iSightUpdate,USB\VID 05AC&PID8300
%iSightUpdate.DeviceDesc%=iSightUpdate,USB\VID 05AC&PID8501


I should mention that the webcam does work in Windows Live for bi-di video chat regardless of the ! next to it in the device manager; however, it would be nice to have the driver correctly installed.

Also, the driver I am using here is the one off the OS install CD which came with the MAC.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Matt
