Hi,
I have recently received a message that there is limited or no connectivity to my desktop PC. It is connected via an ethernet cable and the connection is visible but not sending or receiving any data. I have tried connecting the cable to my laptop, and it works fine. I have also re-formatted the PC to see if that would solve the problem and still no luck, any ideas?? ![]() Thanks in advance |

Ping your NIC to see if properly configured:
START RUN type CMD, Enter type: PING 127.0.0.1 If properly configured, your NIC should return several packets. Also check under the listing, "dropped packets", it should be zero. If nothing is returned or a failure notice, it is either misconfigured or dead. Rarely will reformatting fix a misconfigured network setup. -------------------- AMD Quad 3.0/Oclocked to 3.6
