Alberto you need to address the unknown network adapter, first. Go to the website of your system manufacturer then select make, model and OS. Scroll down to find the network drivers. If this card is an add-on either use the cd, etc that came with it or download the drivers via the net.

Gerry,

Device Mgr looks OK. Nothing different from a month ago. There is an Unknown
Network Adapter with the yellow exclamation, but that was there before.

I cannot print, nor connect to the internet, so I can't copy/paste the Event
Viewer; I will have to write it out here.

Under Security I have 3 events -
Falure Audit 11/2/08 Security Policy Change #615 Network Service
Same on 11/1/08
Same on 10/28/08

Under System I have many events-
Error Service control Manager 7023 (Only 1 day is listed 11/2/08 and most of
the errors are this one).
Error PlugPlay Manager 12 (5 instances)
Error UPS 2481 (1 instance)

I cannot get any info when dbl-clicking or Rt-click and try to open Properties

Is there a way to use Recovery Console?

I had System File Checker in mind but given the lack of a CD that is not
practical.

What errors appear in Event Viewer?

Please post copies of all Error and Warning Reports appearing in the
System and Application logs in Event Viewer relating to the last boot in
normal mode . No Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate
which also appear in a previous boot.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning
of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.

Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?

Hope this helps.
