Hi All

I've got a strange problem I'm running Win2k SP3 and IBM Token Ring card
(yes just a pci token ring card) and an 3com Ethernet card. If I select the
token ring card from the capture window (winpcap 2.3 and I've also tried 3)
then more often than not when I click start the window freezes for 20 secs
then comes back and the capture does not start. If I unselect the 'update
list of packets in real time' then the capture starts without issues. If I
try this with the Ethernet card it seems to work fine. Sometimes if I
re-boot etc I can get the real-time update to work but this is rare. 

Is there anyway to debug or see why a real-time update doesn't work? 

Dave.
