I have 2 network adapters on my laptop and whenever Vista boots up, one of the network adapters is always disabled for some reason so I have to enable it before I can connect to the Internet properly. Why is it doing this? How do I prevent it from being disabled everytime Vista boots up?

Probably one for AC... but any suggestions welcome

is it the wireless one that's disabled at boot??

check the BIOS to see if there is a setting in there for it.

is it a wireless one?

my desktop has two gigabyte lan adapters
the red cross shows on the one that isn't connected ...

if you swap the ethernet cable you should be able to use the one that isn't disabled
