Hello,
Windows XP Pro Service pack 2
lost all network icons, including dial-up and wireless
cannot rebuild connections says service is not started. I have run virus cleanup and checked the cables, started and restarted network connection services. I can ping the network card. when I try to ping anything else it says destination host unreachable. I think that he network folder in the registry is missing??? Short of reinstalling is there any solution,has anyone seen this happen?

Thanks for any suggestions

In the right pane, verify that the following services are started:
? Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
? Network Connections (this service depends on RPC service)
? Plug and Play
? COM+ Event System (this service depends on RPC service)
? Remote Access Connection Manager (this service depends on Telephony service)
? Telephony (this service depends on RPC service and on PnP service)

Thanks for your response and for those great suggestions I hadn't tried any of them. Now I've made sure all services were started @ no avail. I've also applied the winsock fix for xp.
Is there anything else you can think of????

Thanks again,

Lourdes Manila
