Any idea???

CS:Hello Mayflower78,

At what point does your computer freeze? Can you try moving your Wavecenter to a different PCI slot?

Have you downloaded the latest drivers from our website?

Well it is starting with Windows Logo Start Screen and then...nothing happened... I decided to change to a different PCI slot (2 / 2  are available) and same trouble...
And yes I downloaded the latest drivers from the website... my config is:
MB : Gigabyte EP35-DS3P
GC: NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT (PCI-e Slot)
2 Hard drive
OS : Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 (build 2600)

What's going on?

CS: Am I correct in assuming that if you remove the Wavecenter card it boots as expected? Did this problem begin before, or after you installed the new drivers? ( ie. if this happened the first time you installed the card then you haven't been able to install drivers yet)

If this is the case can you boot in "Safe Mode" with the card installed to see if you get a New Hardware Wizard?
