Hi, Roddy.

Since nobody else jumped in with the magic cure, maybe I can point you in
the right direction.

You might start here:
TROUBLESHOOTING
WINDOWS STOP MESSAGES

http://aumha.org/win5/kbestop.php

First read the intro info at the top, the scroll way down to Stop 0xD1. As
it says, "The most typical cause is a bad device driver (one that uses
improper addresses)."

So the first step would be to visit the D-Link website and be sure you have
the latest and greatest WinXP driver for your AirPlus. Also, check any FAQs
or other information available there.

But the AumHa page also says, "It can also be caused by caused by faulty or
mismatched RAM, or a damaged pagefile." Have you run a memory test
recently?
