[MLB-WIRELESS] Killer wireless cards...

[paul van den bergen]

the stuff about NT 4.0 is that to get hotswapping working you need to have 
some (non-free) proprietry software.  this does not seem to apply in this 
case.

I concur that if you are not using a compaq bios, upgrading to a compaq bios 
would not seem to apply either...

It is possible that there are issues with this combination as yet undisclosed.  
What service pack do you have installed and can you upgrade as rick suggests. 
perhaps this might solve the issue.

have you tried google?
