LAN cards are so cheap these days, I'd just try another.
The RTL8139 series are cheap and usually quite reliable.
Oh, and dont forget:

Network Card: 3Com Etherlink XL 10/100 PCI
Recently I upgraded from Dial-up to ADSL and for the first time required the
use of my Network Card. (This device was always disabled.) After the first
time it was enabled and system restart I was unable to access "My Computer".
As soon as I tried to view "My Computer" and have access to Disk Drives, the
system freezes. If I try to close the "My Computer" window, a "Not Responding
Error" occurs. Forcing shutdown via Task Manager has no effect. Only solution
is Hard Reboot.
After much trial and error I discovered that it was the Network Device. If
Enabled at Start Up the problem occurs. If Disabled, no problems.
At present I must disable the devices before Shutting Down and then
re-enable it at least 2 minutes after Profile Login.
Any solution will be greatly appreciated.
If NO Solution is available my request is:
Is there a way to leave the Network Device enabled, but have it load itself
after all other Start Up Processes have completed or after a specific period
of time has elapsed?
