My Realtek RTL8029(AS) PCI Ethernet Adapter ... is dead?

I think it's dead. In Win2K is says:

This device is no longer functioning properly and may need to be replaced. Contact the manufacturer of this device for assistance.

:crysad:

Don't trust Win 2k !
Unistall the drivers take out the card and put it back again. And then check what win 2k says.

Don't 100% trust everything Windows says... it often says that certain drivers and/or .DLLs are missing even though they're right there

Na, it's not dead.

For some reason, when I "hibernate", then turn the computer back on the network card comes up with that error.

So now I shutdown in stead of hibernating. So much slower boot-up.

But it's still alive!

So just leave your computer on then.

He probably wants to save power.

Then use the energy saver. Turn off the hard disks, and turn off your monitor, printer, speakers, etc as well.
