Winows xp sp3 up to date
I had to do a repair install successful but:
When I boot up the network adapter will not work (blue triangle with yellow Exclamation..in the device driver adapters, all is well). as selected via perhaps an old unused now, profile. In the events log I get message 1500 telling me profile can not be found .. but, this reported profile is not the one I have all my files in. But another which the system seems to now default to but which I do not use this may created at some point by the system. In safe-mode I created another profile as admin and logged on and the same thing happened no NIC. In the events file for applications I get general eroor 1500 but for this sort of rougue profile. The settings for the NIC were apparently not working, but by using the device driver updating facility I could tweak choosing the same or another compatible driver.sys and after trying alternatives but often going back to the default driver I get to surf all goes well and I can surf Ok.. that is until I shut down when the cycle repeats itself. Help please it driving me mad..smile
