Re: No TCP/IP traffic

Steve,

Thanks for the post.

I have tried what you suggested but to no avail unfortunatly. I am still
getting the internal error message when trying an IPCONFIG.
In the event log there is lots of report of services failing due to the
TCP/IP service being nonexistant.

I have manually removed the adapter from device manager and let windows
reinstall, but again this just keeps failing.

Is there any way of running a util that might produce a report of the
problem as all the error codes i have at present are not really helpful.

any help is appricaited

Gareth
