Computer problems (Yeah me too)

My fellow forumers, I come to you in a time of need. I believe something about my network card is botched.
When i boot up my PC I have around 60 seconds from when the login screen pops up until my computer freezes hard. That is, unless I within that timeframe disable my local area connection and leave it off for a couple of minutes.

Now, I could live with this, but I noticed Steam does the same thing when I try to log in. Exact same symptoms, this has to be related. This cannot continue.

Any takers?

I believe I have up to date drivers for all my nics, but I cant for the love of chocolate find out what mobo i have
Is there software for this?
