Blue Screen of Death on connecting Ethernet cables
About 2 weeks ago I started to get the BSOD at different random times. I did a system reinstall (Twice) but that has not helped the issue. It seems that the 1 consistent is that when I connect the ethernet cable/s I will get the BSOD. there are 2 separate LAN Ports on the motherboard and it doesn't seem to matter which one gets plugged in. I had both plugged in before this issue began for over a year. I have tested different cables and a different router with no difference in effect.
I am running Window 7 ultimate 64 bit Full Retail
PC is about 2 year old
I am running the PC now using wireless and it seems to be stable.
I am currently using the Cisco EA4500 Router.
I am guessing that it is a driver conflict but nothing new has been added to the system for a while and I try to avoid doing automatic updates to often.
