bman Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 I have 3 computers that are networked together. I have been doing this for a long time now. Just recently one of the computers have been reformated and now it can't see the network or use the internet. I have tryed so many things, I cant think of what is wrong with it. I updated all drivers you can think off, I redid the network wizard thing, still no difference. Any ideas what is wrong here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phiber0ptik Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 not much info on how your LAN is set up, anyway... Are you sure your networkcard have the right driver?Using DHCP? else you have to tell the computer which gateway, dns and what ip it should use.Need more info tho like DCHP or not etc... btw, wizard sucks Good luck!//phiber0ptik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomcaT Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Are you using MAC address filtering? it could be that your router has lost the information about the network card from your reformatted PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyDeNCiTy Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Internet Firewall?? NIC drivers right?? DHCP on or off?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bman Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 I got all the drivers, no Firewall, and I have done this a million times before, reformatted and was fine. I don't get why this is happening now.The wizard tons of time for me.What is DHCP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renzki Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 DHCP = Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phiber0ptik Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 allright lets try this... change place on your NIC-card to another free PCI-slot.Good luck!//phiber0ptik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bman Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 Sorry, just reading this now..Umm would that really make a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newdles Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 If the pci card you have it in now is malfunctioning or extremely dirty then of course it would make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
