I am using XP home with sp2 updates. I downloaded BCwipe from Jetico and
used it to wipe my free space on my c drive. Unfortunately now I cannot get
online at all although my wireless card and even when directly connected my
computer sees the connection. It just will not get an ip address. My other
computers are working fine. I think the bcwipe program deleted or wrote over
some important file or connection...oops. My network connections say limited
or no connectivity and I cannot get online. Has anyone experienced this
before with any of these programs? It's not one of those simple fixes
because I sat on the phone with belkin and then microsoft for hours today. I
am thinking now that I need to reinstall windows xp. any ideas?

And what did the BCwipe tech support say?

Did you try a System Restore before you installed and ran this program?
If not, that would be a good idea.
