| | USB Liksys wireless adapter - preventing boot I bought a new HP desktop with Vista this month and in setting it up I bout a new Linksys USB wireless adapter (the new N compatible one). Beyond the lousy wireless signal (max is 54 versus 108 with the XP MIMO card), plugging in the USB adapter in any USB port prevents the computer from starting up. It hangs at the HP BIOS page and won't respond to any f keys. If i remove the USB card, it proceeds to startup. One of our IT guys said he thought it might be trying to boot from the USB card. Has anyone else had this issue and is there a solution other than removing the network card on every reboot (and reestablishing connectino to the router)? |
