Hank,
A couple problems. First there are the warning messages which seem to only
be warning messages so I am ignoring them.
The bigger problem is I am trying to switch from ICS to RRAS but the RRAS
says the ICS is turned on so I can't enable it. I have tried disabling the
ICS service and enabling the RRAS service. I can only assume one of the
phantom cards has the ICS enabled which is causing the problem. I have also
tried this with / without SP1.
The second problem which is larger is I have install/uninstalled the SP1
three times. After installing SP1 the system no longer gives me the option
for ICS but it also won't let me turn on the RRAS. Removing the SP1 solves
the problem but is not desirable. I am also getting the impression this has
to do with the phantom cards.
So basically I am too the point where the only solution I can find it to
reformat which considering the days I have spend on this problem might be
quicker.
Regards,
John
