I had a similar problem a few monthes back. In my case, the NIC was failing. Try switching it for another and see if that works. You could also try changing ports.

We had an issue with this and originally replaced the switch. Things seemed to work for a time then the problem started happening again. In the meantime the office moved to another floor. When installing the patch bay nothing would connect. Put a tester to it and bingo there were shorts or actually opens all over the damn thing. I think it was solder joints. So I replaced that and the connections were up. But the new switch was damaged. Plug a cable in and the light for a prot next to it would go out and the switch would have to be rebooted. Replaced the switch and all has been fine. So far? Perhaps there's an answer in there somewhere?
