error message

Try to reinstall the NETWORK CARD DRIVER, or remove it to device manager then boot....

Now. Windows may detect that hardware so install it in a proper way.....

I think this error is done when you install the driver in wrong way...like cancelling the wizard on its midle....

Hope this so...

I've noticed that error on a W9x custom setup if you elect to not install certain drivers. Perhaps a dirty install over your existing install may work. But do that after removing and reinstalling your network (NIC) adapter drivers.

Or run regedit\find\vnetsup.vxd and delete these entry. Make a registry backup/save before proceed.

All the answers so far identify the culprit, Improperly Installed Network Interface Card, (and DUN acts as a NIC too).

I believe that vnetsup.vxd is a virtual device driver for Netbios.......
Go to the control panel, double click network.....
Remove NetBeui or NetBios if it is there and then reinstall it.....

Uninstall all protocols and adapters in ControlPanel, Network. See MS Q181599 (Go to www.microsoft.com and search for Q181599) Uninstall NIC. You should, after uninstalling any software for it, physically remove the NIC. Reboot clean. Get up to date drivers for your NIC. Reinstall your NIC. Check network settings, make sure the protocols and adapters you want are installed, remove those you do not need.

If your TCP/IP stack is hosed, go to microsoft and get Q286748.

Usually, just removing the protocols and adapters and reinstalling will fix this. But if it does not, dig some more. What OS? What kind of NIC? Do you use the NIC? Do you have dialup inet? Will help to know so I can help.

Cheers!

you will need to uninstall all network settings and reinstall them. Check this link out for more detailed help about your problem...http://www.cit.cornell.edu/helpdesk/win/ethernet/vnetsup.html
