Firstly, the question mark indicates a device driver conflict, it may be an interrupt request issue.

Remove and reinstall the card AND drivers.

I am not sure what your last couple of lines mean but if you can post the adapter type and model, I can help you find the right driver.

I would recommend removing the card and taking the name and number straight off the card itself, if you have the wrong drivers installed it will most likely be showing the wrong information the device manager.

I agree with the last reply, you have the wrong driver for the network card, open up the computer and get the manufacturer of the network card. Try www.driversguide.com , have to sign up for membership but its free. Been very useful to me.
