New NIC
I even went so far as to buy a USB NIC interface. It loaded right up, connected at 400 rather then the normal 100 Mbps but still would not initiate the TCP/IP.
With the drive image, everyting worked great except for the missing file in Symantec Anti-Virus 2004 beta. I did the uninstall with no results. It's buried in the registry somewhere.
But even with the error, the TCP/IP stays in and works great.
The big problems come when uninstalling which has something in it that takes out the TCP/IP. This could be related to Symantec and their 'Live Update' features.
I'm upgrading ( glutten for punishment ) to Norton Anti-Virus 2004 and see what comes of it. Really like Norton over McAffee which we use at work but this will be my last attempt.
