Since you can reproduce it consistently, does it happen after having captured for a long time?

Have a nice day

Thanks all for the answers.
Gianluca:

- can you reproduce it consistently?

Yes

- did it happen after capturing hours and hours?

No

- if it's a USB network adapter, did you disconnect it?

No

- did it happen after getting your PC out of hibernation?

No

I also updated the Broadcom 440 NIC Win XP controllers to the latest release, and reproduced the same behavior booting 
with Dell WinXP Media Center, and also with a WinXP UE.

Regards,
Rodrigo.

Well, it can mean everything...

- can you reproduce it consistently?
- did it happen after capturing hours and hours?
- if it's a USB network adapter, did you disconnect it?
- did it happen after getting your PC out of hibernation?

Hi all. I am getting the following error:

"
Error while capturing packets: read error: PacketReceivePacket failed
Please report this to the Wireshark developers.
(This is not a crash; please do not report it as such.)

That's an error in WinPcap; you should probably ask the WinPcap developers
about it:

http://www.winpcap.org/contact.htm

or perhaps Gianluca will respond here.
