Event ID 4 and 5 on serveral servers

I have several servers, W2k that get at the same time Event ID 4,
adapter link down messages. Then a few seconds later they all get at
the same time Event ID 5, adapter link up. On our client computers
running WXP Pro they get event ID 4202, disconnected from the network.
How can I track down what hub or switch or cable might be causing this
network wide occurance? I just started this new job and any help would
be great.

If it is the switch,...there is only one...it is the one that they directly
connect to.

If it is the cable then it is the one directly connected to the "downed"
Nic,...or any cable between the Nic and the first switch.

Other switches and other cables won't cause that.
