After intalling a 1394 firewire card in my xp machine, IE
can no longer connect to the internet. Even after I
remove the card and uninstall it from the device manager,
IE still cannot connect and only returns the
message "cannot find server or DNS error." To get IE to
work again, I have to do a system restore (after removing
the 1394 card of course.) I've talked with the dsl
provider, the system manufacturer, and the 1394 card
manufacturer, and checked for conflicts and other
settings, uninstalled/reinstalled both LAN and 1394 in all
combinations, even tried running "sfc /scannow" to repair
IE, but so far no improvement. I also tried a different
1394 card and got the same behavior.

The dsl guys were about to ping to my machine and I was
able to ping to a numeric IP address, but not to an
address spelled out, like yahoo.com.

From searching various forums like this I've heard of a
similar problem with 98, where uninstalling dial up
networking, deleting some items from the registry, and
then reinstalling dial up networking fixed the problem.
But so far I haven't been able to figure out how to
uninstall dial up networking from xp, and I don't know if
this is really the problem anyway.

Any help would be much appreciated.

I have a very simialr problem, nslookup works fine, but IE
or ping (or any other application) cannot resolve the
hostnames to IP addresses.

However, nslookup google.com and then enter the IP address
into IE and it works.

I have also uninstalled and reinstalled, tried 3 network
cards and still the same problem.

I give it another few days of banging my head of the
keyboard, until I put W2K back on it!

Event ID: 1006 Source DHCP is the best clue i've found but
there nowt on Microsoft's site that I can find.

Jon, this copied from another post, does more or less what the Win98 process
was to fix that error, but this works on 2k and XP as well, with a high
success rate.
