I wouldn't call disabling a NIC that I use daily as a good fix for *this* problem, at least. 
This must be addressing something else, because disabling USB solved the problems for me.  These systems have 
been rock solid for months (113 days so far). 
 
And since there *is no USB* on a Compaq 1850R, disabling the USB subsystem is the workaround which is most 
palatable.  It makes sense to me.  But that doesn't mean that this shouldn't be addressed more appropriately.  
Perhaps the usb driver writer should identify that the 1850R doesn't have USB and not allow the module to 
load? 
 
Not to say that the NIC hasn't caused issues elsewhere.... just not here (unless the USB subsystem is getting 
caught on the NIC or something).
