File Corruption

I have a question about Getting Wake On Lan (sometimes called Remote Wake Up) to work:

I followed the instruction and with new drivers for my NIC (3com 905b-tx) in windows 2k and AMD's Magic Packet, I got the lights to stay on my network card while the machine was off. I sent a "Magic Packet" to the Mac address of that NIC and it turned on, but when windows started up it was corrupt and could not get past the load screen and suggested I try a repair. Now is this due to WOL or just a freak of nature type thing that just happen to occur on the first WOL I tried. Could it be an incompatibility with the NIC and the motherboard? Does anyone have any ideas before I go and try it on another workstation?
