I have always had the same problem since I own the wl-100g. XP Freezes completely untill I fysically remove the card.

Re-inserting it after a little while would re-activate the Link again.

I never had to reboot XP to get it working again.

It used to be sort of random within a timeframe of let's say 15-60 minutes. Lately however, I can only get it to work for about 5 minutes max. and I have to wait at least 5 minutes before I can re-insert it to get it working again, and it stops working again within a couple of minutes.

Re-inserting the card earlier will not activate it at all (Link Led will not light).

I suspect it has something to do with the card getting hot ?

I use driver 3.60.7.0.

B.t.w. Power output settings can be found in Windows Device Manager.

As I bought the card in november 2004, I still have time to return the card to claim warranty.

Should I ???
