Restoring LAN on windows 7
Hi All,
A while back I had a lan connection working perfectly (first time i ever used it) on windows 7. I Connected to a windows xp box through the lan cable, and played MPG's with no problem.
For some reason later on I had to disable my LAN. I am also sure that someone else was on my pc as my connection then disappeared!!!! I have not been able to restore my LAN, connect to the XP pc, or anything of the sort.
When I attempt to connect to the XP box, it gives no sign of any connection enabled. When I "ping" the XP box through CMD, it gives 50% loss. But when I Ping the win 7 pc from the XP box, it gives 100% loss.
Any ideas on what the problem might be? I have tried everything from online guides and almost throwing my beloved pc away...
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
