nic stopped working after MS updates

Hello,

My NIC stopped working after downloading the updates from the
microsoft's update web site. The nic was working just find until one of
the updates install a file on the hard drive that tell the NIC to stop
working. The NIC card icon by the clock even says the network cable is
unpulged, but it is not. I've had this touble before and could delete
the file and the NIC would start working again after a reboot. the file
that is created by the download and then deleted by me does not stop
any thing else from working just the NIC card. I'm running Windows XP
por.

Can any one tell me the name of the file to delete,I can not remimber?
Thanks

uninstall your NIC driver and then reboot,
XP will install your NIC automatically

then,you can download another new version of the driver somewhere!good luck
