Default Enabling strong private key protection breaks WPA?

When I use the certificate-import wizard it offers the option to enable
strong private key protection. But enabling this it breaks WPA, I did not
find a window where I can write the password, and Windows told me that it was
unable to find a certificate to log me on the wireless network (using
EAP/TLS) . Is there a method to enable strong private key protection for the
certificate and using WPA to logon to the wireless network using the Windows
XP SP2 supplicant?
Thanks in advance.

You don't want to use strong private key protection with WPA as it will not
work. --- Steve
