"Haggis" wrote in message ... did you reinstall tcp/ip as directed ? Yes. I did. you should only have the active NIC if the onboard is disabled ...remove the onboard from device manager , make sure it is disabled and see if it redetects(it should not) Unfortunately Good ol' Windows does redetect it - every time. this may be part of the problem (i think i mentioned removing all NIC references in device manager in safe mode to make sure you do not have "ghosts") Been there. Done that. No ghosts. Have got another NIC card to try now in combination with the first card to see if that gives me any joy. I'll let you know later what happens on that front. Zippy

Well with a second NIC card in place (and no longer using the onboard NIC)
it's finally been beaten into submission. I've still got to use NETBEUI to get the two PC's to talk to each other mind you. But heck who cares it's working with both PC's being able to see the web. Thanks to everyone, especially Haggis and Stace, for their words of advice.
