This problem just started for me last night after a week of the computer being turned off. I get home and the about 2 mins after i log in it crashes. After that it wouldnt even make it past the windows loading screen. I restarted my computer a few times in safe mode trying this and that even a restore and that didnt help at all. Then i tried starting it in safe mode with networking available and it crashed. So i decided to unplug the usb network adapter and now my computer works fine. Mind you i have been using this same adapter for over 2 years now without a hitch.

For a final test to prove to myself it was the adapter i plugged it back in to a different usb slot and after i was all logged in and windows start up had finished and within 5 seconds it crashed.

im just wondering if there is anyway to fix this problem or will i have to go out and buy a new adapter. its not my usb slots cause other devices work perfectly.
