Networking, no longer
I had my XP networking with another computer at my old home.
Now it is a stand.alone. It works fine but it is slow to start-up. What should I do to reset it to what it was before I configured it to network? thanks |

Right click on the LAN adaptor and disable it. |

Thanks, but now I have another doubt
When I get to Network Connections (I'm translating as it is a foreiugn language) I have two icons: Local Area 2 Connection + 1394 Connection 2 Which one should I disable? Both?

If you mapped any drives while it was networked, be sure to Disconnect them.
To do so, right-click on My Computer and then click Disconnect Network Drive, then choose each drive to disconnect. PattyL "Peter" wrote in message ...

It syas I have nothing to disconnect.
I have tried Tony's suggestion but nothing seems to have changed. Please note that I have XP. I could not find a forum for XP networking. Peter "PattyL" escreveu na mensagem ...
