i hav a wireless card, and after i reformatted (and left the card on the mobo), its internet is really spastic. on 5 minutes, off 1 minute, then it like strobes being on n off. it worked perfectly b4 i reformatted. i installed the drivers and everything several times now. is it the slot? also, i moved about 2 feet down. i thought it would work ther, becaus the router is on the bottum floor and my comp is on the seccond. specs r in sig
