>>1. Have you tried this on a fresh OS install (clean install)? Maybe
registry
>>is left in a bad state and causing this?
Yes We have ghost images of XP-plain, XP-SP1, XP-checked
I understand as re-ghosting has cured problems in the past.

>>2. Are there any entries in the event viewer that suggest what is wrong?
I saw nothing interesting

>>3. Can you check the registry key at:
>>HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-080
02
>>BE10318} to see if everything looks okay & all network cards on your
machine
We show up like other wireless cardbus cards

>>4. Is there any kind of user mode application (eg. wireless connectivity
>>monitoring application) running?
We don't turn that on for NDTEST.exe as NDTEST runs the show.
Also just running on XP I have plugged in the card, NOT run our APP,
therefore
not associated with any access point and just did the remove card and still
got the 30 second
delay before Device Manager screen updates.

>>5. Besides the halt taking too long, does everything else work ok (Do you
>>get an IP address)?
Well, NDTEST hangs while running 1c_InitTime variation 11 so we can't pass
WHQL
but yes we can ping and web browse and FTP and download movie trailers etc.
