I'm sorry, but I must have misunderstood your original question. I
thought that you wanted to connect to two different networks at
different times. That would only require one NIC, which could be
configured for both networks. Connecting to two networks at the same
time requires two NICs.
The two IP addresses that you assigned are in different subnets, so
there should be no problem accessing hosts on both networks at the
same time. However, Windows XP will use one or the other, but not
both, to access hosts on the Internet.
Disconnect the network that's working while troubleshooting the
network that's not working. Then have the computer ping itself, ping
the server, ping other hosts on the network, etc, to find out where
the problem is. See if other hosts can ping your computer.
