Interrupt storm detected

P

prab

Hello, everybody,
I'm still not connected to internet, but when I plug in the LAN socket, repeatedly appears warning:
Code: 
interrupt storm detected on "irq11", throttling interrupt source

What is wrong and what should I do?

Thanks,

prab
 
FreeBSD version is 8.3. The card is what it is in my laptop- Marvel Yukon, it is unreplaceable, I think.
Should I the entire laptop write off?

Wired or wireless? If it's wireless it maybe replaceable.
 
Yes, it is wired. This laptop is capable to connect to wireless networks, (in Windows), but none was reachable in my neighbourhood.
 
One more question: Is there any possibility to download the package via Windows, to write it to CD, and install to another computer with FreeBSD?

What are their advantages? Are they interrupt stormproof?

No, but they might have better support of your hardware.
As it was in my case: 8.1-RELEASE had no support at all of my NIC. 9.0-RELEASE works with no problem.
