Hello everybody,
thanks to all for your responses !

I have a laptop and a desktop. They have an 8169 NIC realtek... And

these 2 machines freeze.

When i disabling these NIC, i have no problems.
In this page http://www.openbsd.org/i386.html, the chipset 8169 is not

written. I think it doesn't work 'well'.

So, in my laptop, I use wifi, and in the desktop, i bought another NIC :-)
Thanks to everybody who help me !
