Without reinstalling windows xp pro servicepack 1a
(integrated) completely? I have some strange browsing
problems - cannot browse while i can ping the same
websites - and like to exclude a coorupt tcp/ip stack.
Here are two possible ways to fix a corrupt TCP/IP stack. Try #1, and
go on to #2 if that doesn't help:
1. Reset TCP/IP, as shown in this Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
How to Reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;Q299357
2. Rebuild the TCP/IP catalog, using these instructions frequently
posted in the news group by Ken Wickes of Microsoft:
a. Backup and delete the following registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2
b. Reboot
c. Open the network connections folder, right click your network
connection, and click Properties.
d. Click Install | Protocol | Add.
e. Click "Have Disk...", type "\windows\inf" in the box, and
click OK.
f. Click "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)", then click OK.
g. Reboot.
