Sounds the opposite to me eric. Probably some option to tell W7 not to disable your NIC when it goes to sleep.

This.

My computer never goes to sleep, I just lock it when I leave it for a few hours/the day.
I'll post results later.



*EDIT*
Still does it.

My previous life as a hardware tech tells me it is a faulty NIC, or faulty mobo<->NIC interface. Easy enough to test if you have a friend with a similar compy willing to take it apart for a few minutes.

Err this is weird... I think it was an issue with the CAT6 lines. I moved my computer and hooked it up with a different cable, and I haven't gotten this error yet. If I had, I would of gotten it multiple times by now.
