    USB Wifi Adapter Freezes PC


    Hi!

    I'm having this problem for last one week, after boot my computer just freezes. When I boot without USB Wifi Adapter the computer runs okay. I have 2 different Wifi Adapters, with both of them its the same problem.

    I followed this thread [Solved] USB devices freeze computer - Gigabyte - Motherboards-Memory , and disabled usb legacy support. the computer ran fine with USB adapter after that (last night) but today morning again its freezing.

    Problem started with TP-Link wifi adapter, now i'm using Linksys Wifi Adapter.

    driver update doesn't do a thing.. I read somewhere there could be IRQ conflict, how do i check that?


    PC Config - Intel G41, Core2Quad 8300, HD5770, 4GB RAM

    Please help!


    Thanks

    Do you have the latest drivers for your mobo? Most particular, your chipset driver. If you could fill your complete system specs in your profile are that will help us ascertain your driver needs for your system.
