Fixed it! Don't know exactly what the problem was... I downloaded all the newest drives for my motherboard, including new BIOS, and installed these after the installation of XP (so before any update). And now it works perfect.. so I think that the old network driver was not working well with the SP2... Thanks you your suggestions!
