Intel 82566 Gigabit Network Connection

In the device manager network adapters the Intel 82566DC Gigabit Network Connection has a yellow exclamation mark. Under Properties I get "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" Anybody knows what it means and how the problem can be solved? Thanks!

Hi caracostis and welcome to Vista Forums

The error message, This device cannot start. (Code 10) indicates a problem with the currently installed device driver. To correct this, click the Update Driver button on the Driver tab to run the Update Driver Software wizard. Don't try to automatically find a driver. Instead, choose the manual option, and then select the device.

Here is a link to the latest driver from Intel:

Dwarf,
I performed your recommended steps but I still get the same problem. I suspect that the integrated hardware is bad and I may have to search for a replacement. The good thing is that the wireless part functions so I can connect to the internet, but at home I would prefer to use the wired connection.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

Simply purchase a suitable NIC card from your local computer store (or through Amazon or NewEgg if you prefer), install it (and the driver(s)) and use that instead.
