Sometimes when the system boots it gives the error.. Your network adapter intel(r) pro/100+ minipci (0001) is not working properly. You may need to set it up again.

Sometimes the modem/nic isn't seen at all. What do you recommend? replace the mini pci card? install a pcima card to replace it?

I've updated the driver and still does the same thing.

Boot to safe mode. Remove the drivers. Shutdown and Restart normally. It should detect the modem/nic and install.

The fact that it detects the hardware... is a good sign; the software/registry is having a problem with it though. Sometimesthe drivers do not remove completely, and removing the drivers from safe mode seems to do the trick. Especially if you find multiple instances of the same hardware drivers installed in safe mode.
