You probably have processor cycling turned on in the Energy Saver control panel (or, if you're like me, you may a similar Control Strip Module). If processor cycling is enabled you **will** get consistent freezes shortly after bootup. Turn of processor cycling both in the AC settings and battery settings and I'm willing to be your problems will disappear. BTW you *do* know, don't you, that you will only be able to use the USB card at 1.1 speeds unless you are in OS X?
