(Maybe this is fixed in 3036, dunno. I'm waiting for it to be 'not beta' before trying.)

Woke up this morning to find XP had rebooted after auto-updates, and my network device was gone!

Rebooted, no luck. Turned networking on and off, no luck.

Finally, re-installed pTools and rebooted from a full shutdown (of the guest).

That got it back, but sheesh! Just wanted to update a couple of things from the host. Last thing I want to do at 6:00 in the AM before running off to work is fix hardware configuration issues that inexplicably went sour when I wasn't looking.

Which I seem to be spending more and more of my life doing...
