Unable to view network connection

[Wayne]

I have got one problem with Windows XP. The Internet
connection is working fine, but the network connection is
not displaied. When I tried to view the network
connection, an error message says "The Network
Connections Folder was unable to retrieve the list of
Network adapters on your machine. Please make sure that
the Network Connections service is enabled and running."

Any ideas? Thanks

To start the Network Connections service:

1. Right click My Computer, and click Manage.
2. Double click Services and Applications.
3. Double click Services.
4. Double click "Network Connections". If the Service status is
Stopped, click Start.
5. If the Startup type to is "Disabled", set it to "Manual".
