re: ''network cable unplugged'' Monday, June 30, 2003 at 8:45 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jim Burris (2 messages posted) I am getting the same message. I set up a LAN for a friend through a HUB about 6 months ago. He has an XP machine and a 98SE machine. I set up the LAN and it was working fine. He had to take his XP machine in and have the hard disk reformatted. He reinstalled XP and had me come back out to re-set up his LAN. Now, however, I get a "Network Cable Unplugged" message and when I run the network setup wizard I can't set up the network. I am using the exact same hardware as before. Can someone shed some light on my problem? Thanks, Jim On Monday, June 23, 2003 at 2:02 am, Judas Iscariot wrote: >I am getting the same message when trying to connect two computers directly.
