I'm swapping a W98 machine to a W2K machine and it
accesses our network through a DSL router, and connecting
to the router with Ethernet. The 98 machine works fine,
but the 2000 machine won't even make it to the login
screen unless the Ethernet connector is not plugged. Even
when I connected the Ethernet after logging in, it still
won't connect to our network. Any suggestions? Thanks.
