Hi
I recently switched to 2007 from 2006. I installed it on my Compaq r4025 laptop. It is great but it freezes every now and then. Like, it's working just fine now, and after a few minutes sometimes, hours or days, it freezes. I don't really know why it does this but everytime this happens, I have to power off the computer.
Here's what I have done:

It seems like this is because of my broadcom wireless card. Why? It's been working fine.
Can anybody help?
Thanks
