    I tried that before posting.

    Ive tried all 4 PCI slots, and drivers are latest ASUS drivers.

    Even a reinstall dont solve it.

Remove the card and install in a different pci slot,it may be a problem with the way windows is giving the pci slot the startup request. Just also double check that the correct driver is being recognised and not a windows generic driver. Look in device manager on hardware tab and see if there is a 'x' or an exclamation mark (!) against the wireless card.

Hotmail keeps freezing
It's the computer not necessarily Hotmail.

Slow Windows Machine!

Sounds like not enough resources such as RAM and CPU. Check Performance in Task-Manager (CTRL-ALT-DELETE). High CPU levels causes hang ups like freezing.

Try disabling startup programs. Go to Start > Run (search in Win 7) and type MSConfig. In Startup tab, uncheck anything that you don't want Windows to load automatically. It will make Windows boot faster and use less resources while running. This just disables them in startup. Programs will still load, but when only you initiate.


Consider increasing RAM.

Please make sure that the router and the not placed need to any electromaganetic source or any heat source. The modem/router should be placed in well ventilated area and if possible on a wooden surface. The wireless hangs becouse the modem/router gets heated up.

Hanging after booting
Hanging is just a minor problem of any pc. It just means that the system is hot. Just open up the system unit and make sure that the cpu, system and power pack fans are working. Also clean the system because of dust.
