Thanks I have tried that. I think my problem was I did a complete reformat and install
with a
ethernet card in place left over from when I was on RoadRunner and it just
automatically assumed I was on a network. I have "Windows Logon" selected but I still
am on a
network until, get this, I make sure that my computer is set to restart and
I log off and it comes back almost immediately with the normal configurations. I
have tried uninstalling
the entire log on connections and reassigning them to tcp/ip but still get the same
result. What the heck,
windows gets filled up with so much crap that I have most of what I need backed up
on burned
cd's. I think I might just do a total reformat and make sure the ethernet card is
not in place.
Any other ideas befor I go this radical route would be appreciated though. Loading
all the crap and then
updatind windows is a real pain. If I still had RoadRunner not so bad but
dial up.....well you know. I am going to wait a while and see if you can come up
with any other ideas but
think eventually this is the only solution. I sure hope not! Thanks!
