IE SP1 signature
You have IE6 SP1 installed along with the latest Cumulative Security Update
for IE. By crossposting this reply, I'm point you to WinME General newsgroup (microsoft.public.windowsme.general) for further assistance with your problem, as I don't think it has anything to do with IE. Either access this thread & further replies to it at http://www.microsoft.com/communities...ndowsme.public or make sure you crosspost all of your replies to microsoft.public.windowsme.general (see "Advanced Options" in lower-right of Reply window). -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE/OE, Shell/User, Security), Aumha.org VSOP, DTS-L.org Carmen Cartaya wrote: It shows : 6.0.2800.1106 update versions SP1 Q905915 Q891781 The issue I'm having is that that computer, running Windows ME, after the installation of Quickbooks and the updating of IE to version 6 ,stopped taking automatic IP address from the DHCP server. Network access works OK. I checked the cable, tried de-installing network card and IP protocol and reinstalling it. Nothing works. Internet access works fine if I assign a static IP address to this workstation, but I would prefer to have it taking an automatic Ip address as the remaining workstations in the network do. I just want to make sure that IE Explorer's latest service pack is installed before trying anything else. Thanks, Carmen "PA Bear" wrote: Windows version?

Carmen,
If you don't manually assign an IP address what IP address does the NIC acquire on boot up? Incidentally, (for Robear) this might perhaps have been better cross-posted to microsoft.public.windowme.networking. -- Mike Maltby PA Bear wrote: You have IE6 SP1 installed along with the latest Cumulative Security Update for IE.

It takes the IP address assigned by Windows that starts with 169.

You haven't by any chance limited the range of addresses that can be allocated by the DHCP server and already have that many devices connected? Could you please try the following. Start | Run, enter Winipcfg in the box and click OK. Ensure that the network card involved is the one displayed in the top drop down box. If you now click Release does it release the IP address you allocated and now show 0.0.0.0? If you now click Renew does it pick up an address from the DHCP server or does it revert to a 169.254.x.x address? If the system picks up an address from the DHCP server then the problem is possibly due to DHCP server being slow to respond to the presence of a new network connection when the Win me system first boots. -- Mike Maltby |
