You are not doing anything wrong.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction as to what I'm doing wrong, as I understood the Winows Media Player 11 should have cleared up the detection of MTP drivers.
There is no MTP support for Windows XP. The below quote is from the calibre What's New section.

Release: 0.8.70 [21 Sep, 2012]

New Features
  • Support for connecting MTP (non disk based) devices via USB, such as the Nexus 7 and the Kindle Fire HD (Windows Vista and newer and Linux only) calibre can now detect and connect to devices that do not present themselves as USB disks to the operating system. Newer Android devices all use the 'MTP' protocol when connected via USB. calibre now supports devices using this protocol on both Windows (Vista and newer) and Linux.
Your friend can email books to the Kindle Fire HD or access his library via the calibre content server. See this section of the FAQ.

Alternatively your friend could upgrade the OS to Windows 7.
