My Vista Home Premium computer crashes hard every week or so and then restarts itself. Then it displays the "Problem Reports and Solutions" screen with this message: "Download and install the driver for Intel PRO/1000 Gigabit Adapter". Problem is, I don't have this adapter in my computer; I have the Intel 82562GT 10/100 Network Connection, original equipment in my Dell Dimension E520. Its driver is up to date.

What is causing this problem and how do I correct it?

Looking at the specs on google, it list your computer as having an onboard adaptor.
Are you using an additional card? If the answer is yes then go into your bios to disable your onboard adaptor.

I'm using the onboard adapter. It is the only one in the machine.

I think this issue is tied to Vista somehow. I don't remember it happening when I was running XP.

I believe I already have the latest driver for my on-board NIC, but I will give this a try. Thanks for the tip.

Did installing this driver solve the problem? I have the Intel 82562v-210/100 Network Connection device on my Dell running Vista Home Basic 32 bit. In the past month, the reboots have started and seem to be getting more frequent occurring on the order of once a day or so. It's very annoying, but I hate to cause a possibly worse problem by uninstalling the current driver and installing this one. I get the same message about the missing Intel/Pro/1000 Gigabit Adapeter, but searching for updates doesn't find the update. It doesn't make much sense to me in general, but I'll try it if it works.
