Mandrake 10.1 dmesg ipw2200_boot.fw load failed

Unable to connect to access point using wireless nic. lsmod shows ipw2200 driver. Have downloaded most current driver and firmware. iwconfig shows: eth1 unasssociated Essid: "default" Mode:Managed Channel=6 Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00. dmesg show ipw2200_boot.fw load failed. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I would like to connect to the internet using my wireless nic with Mandrake 10.1.

TIA
