Did it ever work? Did you switch kernels? Did you install drivers? Try a new cable?

since the Galaxy Nexus doesn't support UTP it will never mount as a USB
Drive(with a drive letter).

You should see "Galaxy Nexus" appear under
"devices" though. You should select "MTP" if asked.


settings > storage > menu button > USB Computer connection > make
sure MTP device is checked.

If you're in a hurry It never hurts to Google either. This way you search just about every forum at once.

You have one of the most advanced phones now, much more so then a Droid X. You can't expect Win XP to get you by forever. Time to upgrade windows or go back to the X and keep it forever as well.
