Windows XP64 has the same build version as windows server 2003 64 bit. Try the 64 bit 2003 drivers some should work. I've got a DLink NIC at home it works well, they had 64-bit drivers. The Marvell Yukon GigE on board Port didn't have 64bit drivers when I built the system and I haven't gone looking for them since.
