Changing MAC Address

XP Home - ACER laptop.

I've got a problem with continually changing MAC address on my
Wireless Network Card.

The first six HEX digits always remain the same but the last six
always change whenever the computer is restarted.

I've tried using the Windows auto configuration and the manual, no
difference.

Has anyone an idea whether this could be a software fault.

MAC addresses are permanent. They are configured at the
factory and cannot be reset, especially by a reboot.
