Is it the WLAN Card utility that is closing? Usually a driver update from your manufacturers website cures the problem (and updates the software if needed). Try that - let us know on here if you need any help with it!0

I imagine plugging it in will work, go into Control Panel >> Network connections and see if LAN Connection lights up when you plug in.
If it does you should be on the net and can download the drivers.0 -
thanks will give it a go0
