    Windows 7 Applications Hanging after Windows 7 wakes up from sleep mode

    Though I would post the conclusion to this problem. It was the free VMware. Once I had disabled the VMware adaptors via Device manager and then uninstalled the program I no longer suffered applications freezing upon waking or network drop outs. I realise VMware is meant to be quite good and it...

    Windows 7 Broadcom BCM57781 onboard LAN keeps dropping out and then coming back

    I do not think its the DSL, as the entire time I have had another laptop connected by wifi and the last 2 weeks wired, to the same Netgear DG843G router. Every time my machine drops I test the laptop and its fine. There is no home alarm here.

    Windows 7 Broadcom BCM57781 onboard LAN keeps dropping out and then coming back

    No VPN, that device could be a Cannon Scanner. In fact the whole reason I installed VMware with my old XP copy was to allow me to connect a Canon Scanner that will not work with Win 7 64bit. Due to no drivers being present.

    Windows 7 Broadcom BCM57781 onboard LAN keeps dropping out and then coming back

    Hi I just allowed the VMware to install itself without modifying anything. I followed a tutorial on using VMware and an old copy of XP to provide ' XP mode'. Now that I think of it, I did install VMware early on in my original Win 7 Pro install. I might restore to an earlier point last week...
