So, I was having an issue with not being able to connect to the internet via ethernet cable. I went out and bought a Linksys Wireless Network adapter, and it said I needed Service Pack 3. So, I installed it, and got stuck in an infinite boot loop. Launched in safemode, and turned off autocrash function. Blue screen popped up, with STOP: 0x0000007E (0xc0000005, 0xFA099756, 0xFA2F442C,0xFA2F4128). I googled this code, and google turned up no results.

It has to do with your new hardware's software which is not compatible.

There hasn't been any new hardware since I dusted the thing off, and plugged it back in.
