Ok, i've been having this problem and i think i've managed to fix it on my machine (it has a D-link card) so i thought i'd post what i did just in case other people were having the same problem. D-link cards don't have an AMDtek chip, they have a realtek chip, so you basicly need to do the same thing but with a realtek driver. The method is explained on the below site for a DWL 510 adaptor, but judging from the site people have had varying degrees of success with other NIC's made by D-link. Also, although the UK site has no new drivers available for download, the german one (www.dlink.de i belive) does, and these may fix the problem.

Good luck

Just so you know, the link at http://www.dessent.net/btfaq/#freeze doesn't work anymore. I guess ADMtek merged, and I can't find the driver on the new site.

So what should I do if I have the newest driver and it still doesnt work?
It doesnt reboot for me thou, it just kinda stops working after a touchdown or when its at half time...

I have a ACCTON EN1207D network card.

Is getting a new network card the only thing left to do? Crying or Very sad

yes, most likely you will have to get a new network card.

I have the Netgear FA311 card. The mentioned driver is not available anymore - but 1.8 works also (it says nothing about winXP compatibility on the netgear page or the driver-README, but it works just fine)

Are you saying it works fine now? Or are you saying it works fine with everything you do but jbb? Cause if it is the later, then that means the driver is not okay. It only fails in certain specific conditions, one of which happens at half time in jbb.

I was experiencing this issue myself (game would drop after I scored a touchdown or the field would not load for the other player if I hosted the game). I've got an ASUS K8N motherboard (uses an nvidia nforce chipset) and was using the onboard ethernet port with the latest drivers for it. I had to install a different card in order to resolve the problem (USR 7900 10/100). Seems to be working like a champ. Hopefully this info can aid someone else.

I have recently installed the DWL-510 card.

The link provided by Jellybaby that gave a solution to use the card no longer works. Can anyone who have used the advice in the link help me out ?

A friend of mine (and me, when I play against him) have the same problem, or something alike. At halftime, and when HE makes TD the game locks up or goes into zombie-mode, ie very, VERY slow. We had it standing yesterday and in 15 minutes or so it managed to put 9 of his 11 players back in the box. Is this something that anyone else have experienced? The zombie-mode, I mean.

I never experienced this problem for over a year, then after reformatting my hard drive suddenly I was rebooting upon touchdowns or game completion. I knew the hardware worked, as it hadn't changed from before. So the research continued...maybe since I got a DSL modem after moving to another state, but all the drivers are up to date on everything in my entire system. Research continued...maybe I can simulate getting a new network card by uninstalling the software for it WITHOUT TOUCHING THE INSIDES OF THE COMPUTER'S CASE, reboot, and upon power-on, the computer will notice a "new" network card and automatically search for appropriate drivers. Poof! No problems since!

I wrote my experiences about this bug and NVDIA nic at Srz's thread, but have to ask here, that when did this bug start to appear? After 8.4?

I know several coaches with whom I always have this problem.
One solved it by playing our games under Hamachi.
Java Bbowl seems more stable under Hamachi.

I have Windows98, and at the end of everygame, right after the end-of-game whistle... everything freezes. Not just Java, but my whole PC. It doesn't auto re-boot... it just locks up and freezes. I have to kill the power, and reboot the system, but then I have no game report to manually upload, because it always freezers before the game report is uploaded. Anyway to fix this problem???
