Thank you!

Hey Kristi,
Don't worry if it takes you a couple of days to respond -- I don't plan to leave GeeksToGo any time soon, so I'll always get back to you :tazz:

I know I asked you to setup a Static IP, but it's obviously not helping, so could you please recheck these options: Obtain an IP Address automatically and Obtain DNS Server address automatically. The Limited or no connectivity message should reappear :)

Do you have System Restore enabled? Since you have removed that Stealth program, try resetting your TCP/IP stack again:
Try WinsockFix. Once run, reboot and test your connection.

If that fails, please goto Start, Run, type CMD, press 'OK', then do the following:
1. Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

2. Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults: netsh int ip reset reset.log

Reboot and test.

Still no change?

Please try powercycling:
  • Power off your computer(s).
  • Shutdown / unplug your modem.
  • Wait ten minutes.
  • Power on your modem. Wait until the modem is completely restarted before the next step. This may take upward of two minutes.
  • Power on your computer.
Do you still have the Limited or no connectivity message?

Thanks,
Dan.

:tazz: Indeed :)
  • Disconnect the modem from all three cables so that the modem is completely off (the power cord, the ethernet cable and the phone line) -- Also, unplug the Ethernet cable from your computer.
  • Open up Network Connections (Start, Programs, Accessories, Communications) --> Right-click on the Local Area Connection and select Disable.
  • Close the Local Area Connection window, and then goto Start --> Run --> type services.msc and press OK. Scroll down until you see the DHCP client, and select Restart the service.
  • Please shut down the computer and wait two minutes. Reconnect all of the cables to your modem. Wait two minutes, and then reconnect the modem to the computer with your Ethernet cable. Wait another two minutes and then turn on your computer.
  • Please re-open Network Connections; right-click on your Local Area Connection and select Enable -- restart your computer.
Do you still recieve the Limited or no connectivity message? Can you connect to the Internet?

Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing your Network Adapter?

Could you please also insert your Windows XP CD and then goto Start --> Run --> type sfc /scannow and press enter. Let the scan finish and allow it to repair any files.

Dan,

I tried the first thing you suggested...still nothing. I have tried reinstalling the network adapter a few times before. I do not have a Windows XP disk. I think our old tech put it on there. :tazz:

Do I need to buy one? Let me know.

Thank you,

Kristi :)

Hi Kristi,

Do I need to buy one? Let me know.

No, it is not necessary. That command isn't really overly important, it was simply intended to ensure that all of your Windows components were installed properly.

Right-click on My Network Places and select Properties --> Right-click on the Local Area Connection and select Properties --> Deselect the option Notify me when this connection has Limited or no connectivity.

Now open up Internet Explorer, click on Tools and then Internet Options -- click on the Connections tab, and then ensure that Never dial a connection is selected. Restart your computer, and then try to open up Internet Explorer and browse the Internet, without connecting your PPPoE account. Are you able to?

I still cannot get on internet explorer with the options set as you suggested. Let me know what else I can do. My mother in law does have Windows XP Professional. I can try to run that file if it will work for the Home Edition. Let me know if I still need to do that, if it will work. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Kristi,

First of all, please right-click on My Network Places and select Properties --> Right-click on the Local Area Connection and select Properties --> Reselect (re-check) the option Notify me when this connection has Limited or no connectivity, if it is still unchecked.

My mother in law does have Windows XP Professional. I can try to run that file if it will work for the Home Edition. Let me know if I still need to do that, if it will work.

Well, before we get to that step, we might as well check if you actually do have any missing/corrupted files... Please goto Start, Run, type CMD and press 'OK' - now type: sfc /scannow -- Let the scan run it's course. If it pops up with any warnings, asking you to insert your Windows XP CD to repair files, then it means you do actually have a problem and we'll need to go down that avenue; if the scan just runs to it's conclusion without any warnings, then it'll mean you don't have a problem in this area.. So you won't need that CD.

Just out of curiosity, when you restart your computer, could you please check your Event Log immediately; are there any errors/warnings that pop up at the same time as your computer starts up? If so, could you please post those.

I know I've asked this alot, but could you please post another ipconfig /all. One with only your LAN connected, and the other with your PPPoE connection, and please post both. Thanks.

You should already have this file installed (as an automatic update), but just to make sure, please download it manually and install it: WindowsXP-KB884020-x86-enu.exe

If by any chance you do get your hands on that Windows XP CD, please do the following:
Install Netdiag
To use Netdiag the Support Tools must be installed
Use a retail XP CD and follow the following steps to install the Support Tools
A) Insert the CD and browse to the Support\Tools folder
B) Double-click on the setup file
C) Go through the prompts until you get to the "Select An Installation Type"
screen
D) Select Complete and click Next

Once setup completes or if the Support Tools are already installed:
A) Open a command prompt (Start, Run, type CMD and press 'OK').
B) Type netdiag /test:winsock and press Enter

It will return the test results for several network components including the Winsock; please paste the results.

Please click Start, click Run, type Msinfo32, and then click OK. Expand Components, expand Network, and then click Protocol. With Protocol highlighted, clicn on File, and then select Export.. -- save it to an easy-to-reach location, and then copy/paste the results into your next reply.

With only your LAN connected, what happens when you goto Start --> Run --> type CMD --> press OK. Now type:
  • ipconfig /release -- wait for the connection to release; then
  • ipconfig /renew -- wait for the connection to re-establish, or alternately for an error message to display -- if it is an error message, please post the message.
Also, with only your LAN connected, please goto Start, Run, type CMD and press 'OK' - now type: netstat -rn and press enter; please post the results here.

Thanks,
Dan.

Hey Dan!

I did run the scan, and it did pop up and ask for me to insert the CD for a DLL Cache file. It didn't get very far in the scan, and then it kept asking for the same thing, until I cancelled the scan. If I need to use the Pro edition...let me know what and how to do it... It may be self-explanatory once the installation CD is in, but if I need to uninstall XP before using it, let me know. Or if I don't need to uninstall anything (and it rewrites the files) just let me know. I figured there may be something wrong with our XP, since I never even asked for it to be put on our computer! Not that I don't like XP(I think it is a good program), but I never stated that I needed it, and we don't have the software for it. :) Well...I guess my last question is...do I need to continue with the other requests or do we need to try to fix the XP program first? :) ...Like I said, I have XP Home Edition, and the CD my mother-in-law gave me is pro edition. I have it here right now, I just need the word. Otherwise...have a good weekend and I will be checking tomorrow to see if you have contacted me. Meanwhile.... :) Let me know soon! Thank you so much! :tazz:

Hi Kristi,

I'm not sure if you'll actually be able to use the Windows XP Professional disc on a Windows XP Home installation. I've asked for a second opinion on this one.

Hello,

Does your last post mean that I can use the XP Pro to check my XP home ed.? If not, would it help to reinstall XP with the pro edition in order to correct what may be missing? Would there be problems on my PC by doing so? Would I have to change everything on my PC by starting over? Thank you for your information...I guess I am just unsure of how that type of software works.

Thank you,


kristi....i'm sure this was asked..but...where is your cd for the computer? not the one your mother in law gave you..

I do not have a Windows XP disk. I think our old tech put it on there. lookaround.gif



We took our computer to our old tech and asked for him to clean a virus. When we got the computer back, it had XP on it. Therefore, I don't have a CD.


Just to let you know how agggravated I was...there was still more than one virus on our computer that showed up since 2001! :tazz:

Anyway...that is why I have no access to the original XP home edition disk.

Kristi :)
