I have taken the network card out and it still shows all the adapters in
devise manager. In network connections it doesn't show anything. I still
can't uninstall. It may be a bad adapter card but I still need these out
before I put another card in don't I? Thanks Chuck and sorry about post.
Yesterday was crazy, network down so I couldn't get reports from client
computer to host to send to you. Then A drive went out
Rick / Deb,
If the list "This connection uses the following items:" shows nothing,
then
that's part of the problem. The computer won't be on the network at all.
My
list shows:
Client for Microsoft Networks
File and Printer Sharing For Microsoft Networks
QoS Packet Scheduler (optional)
Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)
Your list of 10 network cards shows, among other things, "Network adapters
/ WAN
Miniport (IPX)". IPX is a redundant network protocol. If you get your
TCP/IP
working properly, you don't need IPX/SPX or NetBIOS.
Try again please. What is in your list? On Sparky? On Rick?
When you physically remove a network card (or other device) from the
computer,
before removing the drivers for that card, and the bindings to the
drivers, you
are causing a problem. You have to remove things in this order:
1) Interfaces between application software and the drivers ("bindings").
2) The drivers.
3) The hardware device.
Do it in reverse order, and the system gets confused. Put the card back
in, the
system tries to load a driver for the new card, how does the system know
its the
same card as before? And you get "...Adapter #2", "...Adapter #3", etc.
So start right now, and tell me exactly what works and doesn't.
1) Can you access the internet from the host (Sparky?)?
2) Can you access the internet from the client (Rick?)?
3) Can you share files between Rick and Sparky?
And while you're answering these questions (which admittedly are
redundant)
PLEASE don't go pulling network cards out of either computer, or
installing or
un installing drivers. If we're going to solve your problems, I have to
know
how your computer is setup, and what is working, without you changing
things
during the process.
And provide updated ipconfig information for each computer.
Start - Run - "cmd". Type "ipconfig /all c:\ipconfig.txt" into the
command
window - Open c:\ipconfig.txt in Notepad, copy and paste entire contents
into
your next post.
BTW, THIS is what an IPConfig should look like:

Do you see the difference? How much easier it is to find information in
the
first example? Any idea why yours came out as the second? Help us to
help you.
