Hi- One of the computers on our network suddenly cannot access the internet. All others are running fine and no changes have been made to any machine. We run XP 2002, SP2 and this machine uses IE 6. I can access the share drive on the server, and have plugged another computer in to the data connection and it is able to access the internet. Somehow, the broadband connection seems to be disabled.
We use a Netopia Modem and Sonicwall TZ-170.

Error reporting states "no domain controller available for our domain due to no logon servers available to service the request" and "windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for our computer network".

Why would this suddenly happen? Can anyone recommend a fix? Many Thanks. Ben

Jacky - Can't thank you enough. netsh winsock reset did the trick. I thought it might be something very simple but I'm not technical enough to evaluate all the input I saw from various sources.

Hope I can return the favor someday. Ben

Hello Jacky - you helped me a couple of years ago and I am hopeful you may do so again. Appreciate your time regardless.
I'm running Windows Server 2003 on an IBM Server since 2005 with no issues. Today I could not access a retail POS app on the server so went to log in to the server and nothing happened. I rebooted and get a Broadcom 1962 No operating system found error. When I rebooted with the Windows 2003 Server CD, I received an error message that it could not find the hard disk. Someone pointed me to the BIOS but I can't seem to see the order for the drives.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

And unfortunately, Jacky has not been around for a while.

I would run tests to see if the HDD or controller is bad.

Thanks. I was a bit desperate (read: frantic)but I did start a separate thread. Turns out the disk drives went bad - problem has been resolved now.
Appreciate your taking the time to respond.
