OK. I experienced the same problem when there was a sudden electricity outage. Once
the electricity was turned back on, the "Network cable unplugged" message came on.
After scanning through many sites, it appears me to that this error are largely cause
by improper shutdown or any other possible instantaneous events that might have affected
the functioning of the NIC, like lightning or intermittency (even if you try to unplug
and plug again). The cure for the problem for me is to switch off the mains to cut
out any electricity to the PC. Soft off doesn't solve the issue, you must make sure
no electricity (except the battery on your motherboard) gets to the PC.
Prior to shutting down the PC, i also upgrade my NIC driver. That might have helped.
Hope this helps.
However, i believe this solution is not applicable to any serious cause of malfunction
due to hardwork breakage or corrupted system file.
