We did that. Same problem with a different I/O card. Can get proper IPCONFIG /ALL settings, can PING the Dell, can't ping from the DELL. My guess now is that a registry entry is corrupted in a major way. We're 'ghosting' the drive to a new drive, then nuking it. Reinstall of Windows, then...

Uninstall of Comodo didn't change anything. The Mac can ping the Dell on the LAN. The router sees the Dell. The Dell sees the router. The Dell has 'proper' IP CONFIG, the Dell CAN'T ping the Gateway. It seems so close and yet ... no joy. Off to Costco to buy a USB drive since my Firewire...

What's the best software for preserving the apps and settings if I launch the nukes?

Windows Firewall was on, turned it off. Ping to 192.168.1.1 (gateway) still fails. Comodo firewall is installed but not protecting anything (settings). Should I uninstall it?

Another bizarre clue. The Dell on the LAN is sitting at 192.168.1.2 The Mac on the same LAN is sitting at 192.168.1.4 As I mentioned the Dell can't ping the gateway at 192.168.1.1. It also can't ping the Mac at 192.168.1.4 BUT The Mac can ping the Dell at 192.168.1.2 and those packets show...

TCP/IP reset as suggested. No joy. Well, at least now the router DOESN'T see the Dell. That's a change.

It passes the "netdiag /test:winsock" tests. I had done the reset previously.

No joy. In fact it took away the connect to the router. XP TCIP Repair will bring that back, but I'm still where I was.

Oh, I should mention that Activity shows 120 packers sent, 29 Received. Thanks.

System: Dell Dimension 2400 XP SP2 The system is connected by a ethernet cable to a Netgear router. A Mac Laptop was used to verify the connection at the cable that goes into the PC. Here's the situation. I lost connectivity on a uninstall of MacAfee and a Virus run with FP-PROT. Did all...
