Currently I use this card in my laptop for internet connection which is Verizon broadband... Laptop has XP and Vista on new desktop I installed software that came with drive, added Visa driver file, installed Verizon Access Manager with Vista driver, Control shows drive, but when I slide in pc 5740 card, monitor goes to blue or black and says Windows encountered a problem and is shutting down,,,first it trys to repair then it can't repair so it shuts down....
