Default D-Link Wireless Card freezes my computer..

I just installed a D-Link DWL-G520 Wireless Network Adapter, but it always keeps freezing my system..

I know it's the network adapter, because I've never had this problem before..

I have a MSI KT3 Ultra mainboard..

Please help me!!!! I can't find a solution... :x

i've had a couple of D-Link wireless cards and am usin the one u have rite now without probs

are u usin xp? cos that has it's own wireless software which could conflict with the D-Link software (happened with my older card) causin it to conflict

I have revision b also... I don't think the problem is with the windows software causing conflicts, cause I unchecked "Use windows to config my wireless bla bla bla..."

My dad has the same in our other computer, and he has no problems at all..

No, I had SP2 installed, but it wouldn't even install the drivers then, so I had to reinstall windows, no SPs now..

I'm trying to update the drivers, but the computer just freezes before I get to download and install them
