Re: Urgent help
How does Windows crash (blue screen?). What version of Windows?

No doubt someone from NTL will be along soon - do you have to install the drivers BEFORE plugging in the converter?

Re: Urgent help
Have you got the drivers for the adapter installed?

Is there something conflicting with your USB ports? Do the USB ports work OK otherwise?

Someone tha knows more will be along shortly.

Re: Urgent help
What chipset have you got?

Try restarting the computer in safe mode with networking and see if you get the same BSOD
