Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI adapter software

My laptop has shut down and restarted itself twice this afternoon. This is the message I get from Microsoft Error Reporting.

"Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI adapter software (w70n51.sys) has stopped working properly."

That sounds bad...any ideas? Please?

I went to the download center and it said that the update was no longer available.

That's a network adapter. I doubt that's what's making your computer reboot itself. Check the event log. Start->Administrative Tools->Event Viewer

What am I looking for here? I found a bunch of errors and a few warnings in the system view with about 4 different sources (Service control manager, System error, Psched, Dhcp) . The categories say 'None' or '(102)'.

Look in System or Application and click on Warnings, Errors, or Criticals and look for ones that say "your computer was shut down to prevent damage" or something like that.
