Hey good folks at DaniWeb !!!!!!!
I have a Dell Dimension 3100, Windows XP home, SP3
The computer had many trogans and viruses on it and have been cleaned off. Now I can NOT get this computer to recieve internet packets for anything ! It says that my " Local Area Connection" speed is 10 mbps. But that I have "Limited or no connectivity". I have tried Winsockfix.exe, and that didn't help. Local Area Connection is enabled. I've tried hooking the Ethernet cable straight into the computer and I've tried running it into a small hub, where another computer is hooked up and running on the internet just fine. I've tried ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /renew & release. I have hit the " REPAIR" button many times. I have tried unplugging the power to the hub for 30 seconds and plugging it back in. I even put a Linksys Network Ethernet card in it and tried using that . All I got was the same results.
Any help out there ? All help is very much appreciated !!!!!
