I've tried forcing both the linkspeed and nic speed to 1 gig, but it doesn't help. The card is good (it works on my other laptops) and with the same gigabit switch that the SZ is connected to. I've given up (at least I was able to get a full install of Office 2003 with no errors, so last night's re-install wasn't completely in vain).

Any suggestions?
