There are two Intel PRO 1000 Ethernet cards on board. One is installed with
Intel driver and the other is our own driver. But if I install both of the
two network cards with Intel driver, it's still the same problem, which is
yellow marks on both ethernet cards in Device Manager and shows reboot popup
windows.
