Diagnose?  Yes, the above shows how to diagnose it, but you have to be 
unafraid to run WinPcap from the command line.

Fix?  Maybe, maybe not - it's almost certainly a WinPcap problem rather 
than an  Ethereal problem, and WinPcap problems might be problems with 
the underlying network adapter driver and/or NDIS, and neither we nor 
the Winpcap developers have source to those drivers or to Windows 2000.

The WinPcap developers are probably more likely to know why a WinPcap 
problem such as that would occur, which is why, if it's a WinPcap 
problem (i.e., if WinDump can't handle the interface, either), that FAQ 
suggests contacting them.
