setup.exe crashing Windows 2000


setup.exe is repeatedly crashing Windows 2000 on my machine.  It
happens repeatedly right after selecting the mirror.  It only happens
when other programs are accessing the network or when other cygwin
programs like rxvt are running.  It is a hard crash; the machine
resets itself and doesn't display a BSOD.  It does save .dmp files in
c:\winnt\minidump.

This is new behaviour; I run setup lots of times on this machine with
no problems.  There are two things that have changed recently: updated
to Windows 2000 SP3, and installed a Linksys phoneline network card.
I am pretty sure I had the same version of setup.exe (2.249.2.5) and
cygwin1.dll (1.3.12-2) for successful updates before making those
changes.
