I have no answer, just more questions.

What OS are you using? NT 4.0, Win 2k

What is your permission level on the system? User, Power user, admin

(You need to be admin to start services in NT, Power user or admin in Win2k.)

Can you ping other systems to make sure you have a physical connection?

Is your network card and driver working?

Network Hood uses NetBios, are you running Wins on your network?

After re-reading, if the icon is not there, it makes me think it is the cardor driver.

Is there a policy on your network prohibiting browsing the network?

Network Connection depends on the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service, is it running?

What does ipconfig /all show you?

What IP address is the card using?

What network protocols are you running?

Are both the Workstation and Server services running?
