Default WinXP Pro Laptop crashes Win98 Desktop--help!

Any ideas from you guys?

My new IBM laptop with WinXP Pro is networked through a wireless
Linksys router to my Desktop running Win98. The desktop connects to
the router via ethernet cable. I can see each computer from the
other, and I can access the internet from either--no problem there.

The problem is that most of the time, with the desktop running, when I
start the laptop and see the laptop connect to the network (ibm system
tray message), the desktop gives me the blue screen with the following
"fatal exception 0E 0028: EDA #######..." I often get the same blue
screen on the desktop when I place the laptop in standyby (close the
cover).

The problem persists regardless of what program I'm running on the
Win98 desktop. I've even tried closing all running programs on the
desktop except explorer and systray, but it will still crash most of
the time when the laptop enters or leaves the network.

Please help!!

Unfortuantely you became a bit lazy with an important factor in your post:
the rest of the error message. siince the numbers/info which would fill in
the ### can vary...
Here are two MS KBs which might help:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;189655
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315854 which should lead you to
http://support.microsoft.com/common/...s-kb&lcid=1033

Thanks for your reply; however, I've done the basic research including
all MS support references to fatal exception 0Es. I cannot find any
references to the "EDA" fatal exception prefix anywhere. Here are the
specifics: When the WinXP laptop enters or leaves the network, about
75% of the time, I will immediately get one of the following lines
with the blue screen on the Win98 desktop, followed by "this
application will be closed" and no other numbers:
Fatal Exception 0E 0028:
EDA6CDA7, or
EDA3BDB0, or
EDA3BDA5, or
EDA7BDB4, or
EDA3BDAD.

Sometime after getting the blue screen and pressing any key, I'll get
my desktop back. I then do a CAD to see what programs are running and
compare that to what was running before the crash and I can see no
program missing. If I get my desktop back, in every case, the system
will be unstable and always hang on restart or shutdown, requiring
hard restart.

I have Norton AV and ZoneAlarm, and I can duplicate this problem with
them running, disabled or uninstalled. My system is virus and
adware/spyware clean.
As I mentioned in my original post, I can duplicate the problem with
nothing running except explorer and systray. My Linksys router is
WRT54GS. Any ideas?

For anyone else with this problem, this fix appears to have worked:
Disable the Browse Master in File and Print Sharing for MS Networks on
the Win98 system.

Thanks to Steve Winograd's post on this group re Networking XP Pro and
Win 98SE:
"...
1. Disable and re-enable File and Printer Sharing on 98.
2. Make sure that a firewall program on 98 isn't blocking access.
3. Disable Browse Master on 98...."
