Sorry, this is a second post from another group. No answers from other
group.

I had 3 hardware profiles setup prior to upgrading to SP2. 1-wireless and
2-wired networks (different IP's; internal card and PCMCIA card, on a
laptop).
They were working fine. On bootup I just had to pick which one I wanted and
I was connected w/o making any network changes.
Since SP2 my 2nd and 3rd choices(wired) don't work. If I select one of them
and
enter my password the desktop flashes and then reboots. It happens on both
the 2nd and 3rd profile I select, it works fine on the 1st profile. The 1st
one being the one I used when I updated to SP2.(??)
I removed and reinstalled 2 & 3 and they worked OK for a couple of times now
back to not working. Is there a known issue with this and SP2 or am I doing
something wrong? Should I have updated to SP2 w/o profiles then re-added
them? I'm trying to avoid alot of trial and error here.
