TCP/IP problems and S1/S2/Fn key not working

Firstly, hello again everyone. I've been really inactive. =/

Anyway, I have 2 problems on hand now, both caused by the same reason:

I was wanting to clear out junk from my laptop and thus I referred to an IT magazine.

I used a tool called Duplicate Finder by Brooks Younce Software.

After I used the software and rebooted, all my drivers were corrupt, Photoshop CS2 wouldn't work, and lots of other things happened.

Well, I solved those problems, but..

1.) When I try to connect to a Local Area Network, it doesn't assign me anything.. the details box is empty. Totally blank. And, when I click Repair, it says 'TCP/IP is not enabled for this connection. Cannot proceed.'

I already Googled it up, and tried most workarounds, but it won't work.. and I'm left with a dead laptop that won't connect to the Internet (through the ethernet port).

2.) The Fn, S1 and S2 keys on my keyboard isn't working. I already reinstalled the drivers for my laptop but still it won't work.

Please help, I'm on the verge of sending it back to Sony Center...

Have you tried resetting the TCP/IP? Checked that all the services are running?

do you have your windows disk?

Do you have a valid XP cd?

If so, place it in your CD ROM drive and follow the instructions below

Start > Run > cmd then type

sfc /scannow (note the space)

let this run untill you get a message saying it is complete.

SFC - system file checker, retrieves the correct version of the file from %Systemroot%\System32\Dllcache or the Windows installation source files, and then replaces the incorrect file.

If you want to see what was replaced, right click My Computer > manage, expand event viewer > system..

Nope. XP on my laptop is OEM. No driver disk, no Windows XP disk, no nothing. :)

Running sfc /scannow without the disk... probably will be able to find the file online =/

Will post back with the results.

Thanks.

Go to the command prompt and type "netsh int ip reset restlog.txt" (without the quotes)

Microsoft's directions are here.

Hey guys, just woke up...

Anyway, I restarted my laptop, and well, ... it's working again. Most probably the earlier fixes didn't work because I didn't restart :) ...

Thanks everyone!

No prob...Even tho I'm not sure if I was able to help!

The Skeptic - I thought that the WinSock XP fix pretty much reset the TCP/IP like I had him do...or am I mistaken? Because I thought about recommending that, but thought it did the same thing and wasn't sure where to download it, so I didn't...

I am not sure if the one is the other. I looked many time for definitions of the two but couldn't come out with answers. My impression is, and I may be wrong, that winsock also fixes tcp/ip, but tcp/ip doesn't fix winsock. At the same site from which I took the link to winsock there is another link to a fix for tcp/ip (here). Honestly, I am not sure, and would be glad to learn.
