I am having an issue where the the option for network adapter is not being displayed in the device manager. I've alway had a network adapter displayed in the task bar and out of a sudden I can not see this display. could it be that my NIC card may have gone bad? Even in that event, shouldn't network adapter appear in the list under device manager? Any input will be appreciated.

The problem is when I go to device manager I do not see the category for Network Adapter. This make it difficult to re-install the driver or roll it back. Can I reinstall the network adapter driver via the window xp installation cd rom?
