I recently installed a wireless PC card from Compusa and now twice the computer has locked up. On the previous occasion, I was able to get one of their people to talk me thru safe mode and a restoration to a day previous to the installation. I reinstalled the card, and it ran ok for a day or so, but has locked up again. I cannot get the machine to even come up in safe mode. Ideas?

Have you removed the card again? What exactly happens when you power on the computer? Where does it fail? What type of XP CD do you have?

Behaving better today. Yesterday was from hell in a lot of ways, this was just the last thing. Now it works well. Thanks!

Thanks for the update and the thanks!

Let us know if we can help further in the future!
