You wanted the solution to my particular problem. Where here it is. I am using a Netgear ethernet card connected to a 6 port hub which is connected to 4 other computer and a DSL modem. The ethernet card was defaulted to the pnp mode. It was suggested to me by a friend to run the setup disk that came with the card, disable the pnp mode to non pnp and use the same base address and IRQ setting that was found in the device manager when the card was in the pnp mode. I did just that and everything is just working fine now. No more crashes. I don't know why this proceedure works but it corrected my problem. Thanks to all for the helpful advice.

Thanks for the reply JimmyK. Well, I don't mind the name calling. I got used to that in the military many years ago. Just shows you the mental state of some of the self proclaimed "guru's". Well the problem got fixed. I talked to a local "guru" (very friendly, no name calling) nearby me and he resolved the problem within 10 minutes. The machine hasn't crashed anymore. It was a regular 20 - 30 minute occurrance (crash). Been running fine now. Don't need to reflash or anything. Was a very simple fix. I just overlooked the obvious. Have a good one.

I have a Genoa Systems TV Tuner/Video Capture card (PCI) that will not work with Win2000. It is the VideoMotion Series. Works just fine in Win98.Any suggestions on how to make this card work in Win200? If there is not a workable solution, any recommendations on an inexpensive capture card for Win2000? Thanks Dave
