A wireless network has wreaked more havoic on my machine than anything hooked to it since or before and I try to break things. I would get the blue screen of death. I'm quite sure you have another process stepping in at some point........... what it is I don't know but do keeps us posted on your findings please. Have you looked at the optimization file? Most of it is rarely necessary any more but it will give you some ideas what to look for I think.
