Question for anyone who has the WMP54G PCI Wireless Card.

The one installed into my sister's computer seems to be working fine. The one installed into my brothers has been iffy. Once it stopped working, the card showed in the device manager but had a yellow exclamation icon (a conflict?), and I believe a error 10... Dunno what happened but it seemed to have fixed itself a hr or so later. Then today, my brother tried to use the net and couldn't and again he checked the device manager. This time, the PCI wireless card was nowhere to be found. So I got the card taken out and plugged it back in and it seems to have worked so far - I suggested trying a different PCI slot, but my brother has just two slots free, but one of the slot is too close to the graphics card installed into the AGP slot.. Any ideas why this could be happening to my brothers computer and not my sis. Or what could have happened in the situations above.

If it wasn't for the fact that the card works 95% of the time, i'd have thought it was faulty the card itself.
