David,
<i>I just tried booting my mp with the card not inserted, no problems, its only when the card is using those drivers, but I haven't any other driver to test the card with.</i>
I'm not sure we're talking about the same card slot.
My hypothesis is that the problem occurs at the time when the (any) driver turns on the power LED on the wifi card in the PCMCIA slot on the right side of the unit. This will presumably happen if either the card is plugged in when the unit is not suspended, or when the Pwr key is pressed to leave suspension while the wifi card is already plugged in.
My experience is that the latter case, unsuspending with the Pwr key, frequently locks up the system requiring a soft reset to recover. However, this does not seem to occur if the CF memory slot in the front of the unit is empty.
Regards, Don
booting with or without a card in the cf slot seems to make no difference on my handheld, when the driver that freezes is installed, and I put my card in that uses that driver, the unit will freeze, but when I remove the card, right away the unit starts working again, and for a split second I can even see the wireless utility see a wireless network, but then it closes because the card has been removed.
