Hello,
We have been trying to get our old windows xp up and running again and it has had an internet connection problem for quite a while. I am try the reset listed a long time ago on this site if it does not work any other advice? Possibly install a newer updated driver for network connections?

2. Select Manage.
3. Select Device Manager under Computer Management from the left pane.
4. Then expand "Network Adapter" from right pane.
5. Right click the Device listed.
6. Click Properties.
