On that other computer that works fine, is it connected to the network at the same time or did you have it turned off?

I actually have to dis-engage the cable out of the one computer to put it into the other. Our macintosh has it's own independant connection. It's just the PCs that have to do this.Originally Posted by Corey Bryant
The problems began after I had to use someone's wifi connection.
It sounds like that wifi more than likely changed some type of a setting. As Luke says, it is so difficult to diagnose without being right in front of the computer.
I'm considering re-installing the entire operating system. But it is such a pain in the ass because win2000 won't install under dos.It sounds like that wifi more than likely changed some type of a setting. As Luke says, it is so difficult to diagnose without being right in front of the computer.
My computer has a swapable 3 1/2 floppy and CD rom. After re-formating I have to install Dos for the CD rom drivers.
Those 3 diskettes they give with win2000 don't work unless you have both a 3 1/2 and a cd operating at the same time.
Sounds like you need a quick upgrade to XP pro:extat:
No No No NO NO and case you missed it NO!!!!!
I down graded the operating system from XP pro. Damn thing kept closing applications and poping up that fatal "Send Error Report"
2000 is nice and stable.
But XP is worse than ME.
