Default Problems installing Linksys WPC54G on Toshiba Satellite 460CDT.

Recently I bought a wireless card for my (old) laptop,which is a Toshiba
Satellite 460CDT. The wireless card is a Linksys WPC54G. Installing the
SW/drivers from the CD-rom went without any problem. After the card is
installed the PC is restarted and the card is recognised and proper drivers
(Wireless G-adapter) is loaded. Sofar no problem looks like. However after
starting the Linksys utitlity to configure the card the PC hangs and can
only be restarted with thereset button. Initially the PC was running W98 and
W98SE. Recently I installed Windows ME. All have the same behaviour. Also
the bios have been upgraded, also without result. The PCMCIA setting in the
bios have been set to cardbus, otherwise the card is not recognised i.e.
power led no not switched on. I have run out of options. Played a bit with
the interrupt settings of the PCI bus. The result was that the Linksys
utility would start up and it indicates (incorrectly) that the card is
working. However selecting an option makes the PC hang again. Anyone who can
help here??

Thanks,
Henk
