Re: pcmcia-card (netgear wg511t) causes computer to get extremly slow ...
Hi
I can't help you with your problem but you may consider reposting
because you seem to have changed the subject line of an existing thread.
Some people may, as a result, send it to trash because the thread is of
no interest to them.
Always, start a new message rather than highjack an existing post ;)
Regards
Clive
