3Com Networking Card Crashing Normal Mode on XP HELP!
Compaq Deskpro EP/SB Series
System ROM Family : 686T2
System ROM Date : 02/08/99
Processor Stepping : 652
Networking Card : 3Com EtherLink XL 10/100 PCI For Complete PC Management NIC

Ok here's the problem...everytime i boot with the network card running in normal mode it loads fine but after 1-2 minutes it hangs..ctrl-alt-del doesn't work. when i boot in safe mode everything works fine i just have to put up with the resolution and use keyboard shortcuts and stick mouse keys. i tried installing the new drivers for the network card however nothing has changed. your thoughts would be much appreciated! thankyou!

Re: 3Com Networking Card Crashing Normal Mode on XP HELP!
Do you have the RPC patch? Could be you have one of the worms of August. Do a Ctrl + Alt + Del right after it boots and select Task Manager then Processes. Click on CPU and it will sort the processes by CPU use. What is at the top? Normally it is System Idle tho there may be a few things which have to do with the boot process still running. Watch it for a while until it hangs and see what is at the top then. You might try running IPCONFIG and removing all non essential programs. See www.netsquirrel.com/msconfig for details.
I assume you are running the
3Com 3C90x Fast EtherLink XL/EtherLink XL NIC Drivers
version 5.44 A (14 Apr 03)
from the HP website?

Re: 3Com Networking Card Crashing Normal Mode on XP HELP!
Used to be on 3com cards you had to run the floppy that came with them and then you could turn off plug and play and adjust memory locations, however, it seems unlikely that this would be necessary with a PCI card. If you remove the device via the Device Manager and reboot it does it find it OK and install a driver or does it ask you for one?
Have you tried the first driver on this page:
