MN 720 Freezes Evo N1020V

I run WinXP Pro on my Evo N1020V, and I am attempting to install
Microsoft MN-720 on this system. Upon inserting card into PCMCIA
slot, cursor freezes, system hangs; I then must power down and reboot.

Card is not defective, as this same result occurs when I attempt to
install a brand new card of identical make.

I have not been able to complete install of this product.

What does Microsoft support say?

(Paraphrasing here)

"Duhhh"

They've directed me to contact the manufacturer of the laptop
(Compaq/HP); who, in turn, has referred me to (surprise!) the
manufacturer of the card (Microsoft).

Hmmm. well, I have to say that IBM has the first responsibility here and
Compaq/HP is secondary. Have you done keyword searches in the Microsoft
knowledge database?

Open the broadband utility and under help go to check for updates (or
something like that) then download the update. I also had that issue the
update helped.

Yes. Nothing in the knowledge database related to this.
