Hi,
I am running WindowsME. I have lost my internet; but I can still access the LAN. I have TCP/IP and NetBeui protocols set up on the PC.
I pinged one of the other computers on the LAN and received "transmit failed. error code 10043" as a result.I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling the network card and all of its protocols. has anybody a helpfull suggestion?

What has changed on your system?

Presumably it was working ok, and then "just stopped". Are there any details that you can supply in between everything working ok, and "just stopping" :)

Some ideas:
a) Check cables are plugged in properly (unplug and put them back in again)
b) if you are using a hub ensure that it is still getting power....ive had a cleaner take one ok with a vacuum
c) the problem may not be with your machine at all. I am guessing that you do not access the web locally, therefore you must have some form of server/ICS. Reinstall all the settings on the server relating to your machine
d) Have you insatlled anything that has messed with your firewall settings therefore preventing you from seeing other machines...

Not a hardware problem, more details are I uninstalled a network sharing program to use a Cable/DSL router. Everybody (3 computers) worked except the computer that used to share the network connection. My thinking is that something as far as a setting in TCP/IP is not well.

Try configuring the NIC to be 10MB full duplex and the do an ipconfig refresh release, then an ipconfig /renew. If 10 MB full duplex does not work try 10 half, 100 full 100 half. This has worked for me many times.

if your Netbeiu set ok can you see other PC on the network and access their drive/files etc? If you can access other PC that means there is a problem with your TCP/IP setting. If you can access other PC (and assume you have set sharing and the protocol correctly) then your network hardware might be the problem.

If you ar sore you netowrk hardware ok, have you checked if your subnet is the same and you are both using DHCP or static IP??

I can see the other computers and their files on the network fine, that's how I determined that Netbeui in working. I have check all my settings on TCP/IP, they are correct.

If you can ping 127.0.0.1 -card is ok
then you want to ping the router, if you can do that then, is your proxy server setup ok?
Also make sure that netBeui is not messing you up, you shouldn't need it to get to the internet or your lan if your gateway, dns, etc is setup correctly
