This issue appears to be windows 7 + Hardware specific, i work in a school, currently deployed windows 7 in the library only for testing purposes and fault finding for a summer role out...
2 PCs are MSI Motherboards, same graphics chipset and network chipset as the others and they work fine
7 other PCs are foxconn motherboards
The Foxconn motherboard PCs use Pentium D 2.8ghz CPUs, the MSI boards have E2180s in them, the install on all the PCs is 100% identical (image)
I'll have to edit this post with the model of the boards later.
The crash occurs when the connection is first made, sometimes i have to attempt to connect 3 or 4 times before it'll work, sometimes mouse movement before the connection is ready causes it, sometimes im just not sure.
Anyone have any ideas as to the cause of this issue?
EDIT: I read a few threads the other day in search of the problem, if only i'd done the same today, seems only 2 threads below this one someones having the same problem on windows XP, sorry to have multiplied the threads on the issue (assuming it was the same one)
