"PCI communications device" is displayed in the Device Manager when Windows does not have a driver for a PCI device that is used for networking in some fashion. It could be a dial-up modem, Ethernet controller, or a wireless card. You will need to download drivers from your computer manufacturer to display a more specific name in the Device Manager and make the yellow question mark go away.

I don't think so. There are mini PCI-E to PCI-E adapters which would convert the mini to an x1 card, it seems to be very device specific however. I would generally depend on the device - in this case, I found adapters for Wifi cards.
