anyone finding the intel 5300 wireless card unstable in the t60, since installing it i keep getting blue screen of death quoting parity errors

tried all the latest intel wireless drivers and it dont seem to be helping

anyone got some pointers

Try the Lenovo drivers instead.
Also, if that card is not a specific-for-IBM/Lenovo version, the BIOS will block it from working.
Get a Zender BIOS to bypass this "whitelist" check.
