No network connections showing

I've got two NIC cards installed on my XP Pro system and they're both
visible in device manager. However, I don't see any network connection
displayed under Network Connections, and if I try to create connections
using the wizard, I get a vague error indicating that the wizard has faced
an error. This is causing my peer to peer connection to a second PC not to
work.
Has anybody seen this before?

Thanks,
Gilgamesh
 
First make sure that your Network Connections Service and Remote Access
Connection Manager services are running. If they are then compare the LAN
connections in the connections folder with the Network Adapter drivers in
device manager. If there is a Network Adapter driver that doesn't have a
corresponding connection in the connections folder then try reinstalling it.
 
Thanks, it worked.
