Hi
In General you can debug the Network Setting of the computer following these steps.
Step One. Check the Network parameters in the Computer's Device Manager. Make sure that
the drivers are installed correctly; there is No IRQ conflict, and No Ghost
installation. http://www.ezlan.net/faq#ghost
Step Two Verify Basic network setting in the OS: http://www.ezlan.net/Installing#verify
If the above two Steps indicates that every thing looks good but functionally it does
not work.
Step Three. Check (and repair if necessary) the Socket Layers, Winsock, and or refresh
the TCP/IP Stack. http://www.ezlan.net/clean#refreshnet
If need to Reinstall; Log to this page it have a lot of links to instructions for
Windows Network Installation - http://www.ezlan.net/Installing.html
