Loch-ups

[Guest]

Sony Vaio laptop using WindowsXP SP2 up to date.... Mozilla 1.7.12 browser.
I use a DLINK Dwl-G630 nic to connect to my Actiontec wireless dsl
router/modem. Anyways occasionally while surfing my computer will lock-up,
mouse everything is locked, but if I remove the G 630 nic card everything
returns to normal and works correctly. Events are random as far as I can
tell. For instance, I was connected yesterday for 15-16 hours, no lock-ups.
Today after 2 hours bam! I removed the NIC and back to normal. This is all I
get in event viewer:Event Type: Information

The browser has forced an election on network

browser was stopped.

Help and support center doesn't have much to say on this matter.
