Linksys WMP54G Wireless Adapter Freezing PC

I am using Win XP SP2 on a GenuineIntel PC. I have installed a
Linksys WMP54G wireless on the PC. When I install the driver that
came with the adapter the PC freezes - won't respond to mouse or
keyboard. When I go into safe mode and remove the adapter using Add/
Remove Programs, the problem goes away but then I cannot access the
Internet. There have been times in the past when I have managed to
trick the PC by connecting using the LinkSys CD and then removing the
CD driver at just the right time. Then the PC works fine with the
Linksys hardware. Unfortunately I forget how I managed to do that in
the past. Usually, when I remove the CD driver, I lose connectivity.
If I don;t remove it, the PC freezes. However, it does indicate that
the problem is with the driver rather than with the hardware. Any
ideas of how I can get around this conundrum? I don't know why XP
can't just recognize the hardware.
Many thanks in advance,
Peter.
