I just purchased an HP a700n yesterday to replace an older PC, and I've been
trying to set up a Linksys Wireless-B WMP11 PCI adapter that had been running
on the older PC so it can connect to the home network I've set up (which runs
through a Linksys Wireless-B BEFW11S4 broadband router). What's going on is
after I install the PCI adapter, the new PC locks up completely after being
connected to the network for about a minute, necessitating a hard reset
(where it then, of course, does it again).

I've completely racked my brain for all possible recourses - I've tried
installing it on each of the PCI slots, I've tried running it with the
Ethernet port disabled and the dial-up modem removed (despite the Device
Manager never showing any conflicts) - I've even tried disabling Windows XP's
(the machine is running Home with SP2 pre-installed, so I can't remove SP2)
wireless management utility and using one from Linksys (which didn't work due
to numerous software error messages).

PLEASE HELP!

saying that the post could not be made for some technical reason. Feel free
