SP2 Laptop PCMCIA USB Adapter Lockup
I'm using a Compaq Armada E500 Laptop with a Belkin PCMCIA USB 2.0 Adapter,
and a 3Com 11g USB Wireless LAN Adapter. After installing WinXP SP2, I get irregular lockups of the UI: Keyboard, mouse and display freeze. Disconnecting the Wireless adapter does not help. Ejecting the PCMCIA card brings Windows back to life. If I wait long enough Windows will beep, signalling that hardware has been disconnected. It is then safe to re-insert both adapters, and wait for the next lockup. Has anybody seen behaviour like this, and is there another solution besides uninstalling the Service Pack? |
