My PC restarts Sometimes randomly when My LAN is plugged in and it restarts mostly when I play online games... I have an inbuilt LAN-card in my motherboard but I got a spare separate old LAN-card and I Can't get it to work although the green light flashes of the separate LAN-card but my pc does not show that it is connected... Please help.

Disable the onboard lan in the BIOS. Install the drivers for the new one. If the new one doesnt work, buy another one

You will need to find drivers for the add-on LAN card. The green light is to indicate that the connection is successful with cabling. You can double check the card's functionality under your "Device Manager".

Just out of curiosity, what makes you think the rebooting issues are related to your LAN card? I know LAN cards have an option for Power on over LAN option, but I have yet to see one cause system errors resulting in power cycling.
