Was this machine an upgrade from an earlier beta of Windows 7? I had this issue on an upgraded system. The issue was gone after a clean install.Ray

It happens over wireless network with me, but not always. Happened once between another Win7RTM, and once between a Vista PC. So have you been able to get it fixed? PS: Although my main PC (the one that locks up) is connected threw Ethernet to the router, and then wireless to the others...

I think I might of found a solution! At least this worked for me! I unistalled my network driver and downloaded the newest version from the manufacurer site, and installed ir, but set it to Compatibility Mode (with XP I think...maybe Vista. Not 100% sure). And thats it! It doesn´t freeze anymore!
