If that happens, you will need to use a network cable to get the machine back up and running - right click on the start button - Select Device Manager - Open Network Adapters - Right click on the adapter - Click "Uninstall Device" - Restart Computer - Open Device Manager again (as above) - Open Network Adapters - Right click on the network adapter - Select "Update Driver Software" The final steps above (Update Driver Software) may not be necessary.
