I am wondering if some of our sly geeks can help me!
I currently use a laptop and don't have a online access at home. I will eventually in a few months. So I go to wi fi hotspots like Starbucks and the library.
Anyway, I live near the city limits of Seattle, so I can got to the Seattle Public Library system and use their wi fi with no problem. But since I live near the city limits, the suburban King County Library system is also quite close. So when I have been using the King County Library wi fi, I seem to get the dreaded "Blue Screen of Death". In fact, just before coming to the Starbucks that I am at, I tried TWICE to get onto Windows, and got the Blue Screen. It has been over a month and I was at another King County Library branch and actually got on the internet and while just browsing, I had gotten the Blue Screen TWICE.
So my question, can some wi fi systems cause that to happen? I have only had problems in the King County Library system? I would love to see what you think?
It's most likely a case of a bad driver for your wifi card. Do you have an internal or external card? My suggestion would be to update the driver.
It has to be internal as I don't have to plug anything in. But why would it only happen with this particular wi fi system?
Ah, the dreaded BSOD! I agree with Tyler that it is, more likely than not, a driver issue. Of course any additional info may change my opinion.

How old is your laptop? Many of the older (2-4 years) Intel wireless adapters are not compatible with many of the newer access points.

Bro try and get the error # when it BSOD's, you can usually look them up.
