I have a strange issue to discuss with you folks as well. I think it's kind of relevant to the topic.
My cousin fried his modem and bought a modem (Agere V.92 PCI)today. Installed drivers (from the CD-not digitally signed). Logged to net. After 5 minutes (or less), rebooted suddenly (BSOD-WinXP Pro). Changed the PCI slot and even installed the Win2K driver. Still the same. Tried out everything. Just opened the task manager to see if any process is causing this. It was MSBLAST. Ended that process. Worked fine.
I don't know whether MSBLAST was there on his system before he bought the modem, or it might even have installed with the drivers.
