3Com/Win Protection Error

System setup:
P150/32
S3 Video
ATAPI IDE CDROM
Cable Modem Road Runner
3-Com Etherlink XL TPO 10Mb

It's funny cuz I get "Windows Protection Error" on bootup
when I install new software that requires a re-boot.  Well the only way I found to resolve this problem is to Safe Boot
and remove the Network Adapter, reboot, and reinstall
the drivers again.

Has anyone encountered this kind of problem?
Thanks for the input.

Well, I found a way to resolve it.  I changed the resource
address and it stop giving me the protection error.  God, plug
and play is just not full proof.
Isn't that the truth. Check the real mode/protected mode issue anyway though just to be safe! BTW: Why give me a "D" grade, you could have rejected the answer!
