There are no XP drivers available for this wheel, MS stopped the support after Win98.

But it depends on what wheel you have for the USB version of the wheel you can still use the 4.0 drivers under XP:

(use the "Download now" button or google for
SideWinder Game Controller Software Version 4.0 )

If you then want to use the recorder function of the drivers you have to do this:

assign or record the left shift paddle in the recorder software to downshift and the right paddle to upshift - save the sheme - then open LFS and you can assign the left and right paddle shifters to the buttons for up and downshift.

or use this sheme (unzip it !) and put it into:
C:\Programme\Microsoft Hardware\Game Controllers\Schemes (or wherever you installed the MS software) and then assign the buttons in LFS -> Options -> Controls

I heard that sometimes it helps to read the HTML manual that comes with the software
