About 6 months ago I setup a W2K Pro system to act as an FTP server to exchange files. For some reason, about 1 month ago, I could not access the FTP server from Internet Explorer on a Windows XP machine. I receive the error "An error occurred opening that folder on the FTP server. Make sure...

Bill, I thought it would come to something extreme, and that is better than reformatting. I will try it sometime this weekend if I find the time. If not, please remember to check this thread on tuesday if I have any more problems. What do you think caused this? Thanks for all your help. Joe

I read the Norton link and I don't have that problem in my registry. It looks like that was an older Norton issue when XP just came out. I uninstalled Norton 2004. I guess I am back to square one. Thanks again. Any more suggestions would be appreciated. Joe

OK. When I first encountered the problem I installed a 2nd card and then uninstall it. As per Jim's suggestion I uninstalled the motherboard card and reinstalled it with no success. Now, as per Bill's suggestion, I uninstalled the on board 3com and disabled it in the bios. Then I installed a...

I am going to pick up a new card now and I will disable the motherboard card. I will get back with results. Joe

Bill, I have already ran WinSockFix and the problem still exists. I will check the other 2 links, but I feel it is more than a configuration problem. Doesn't the receive traffic point to something using the network card? Joe

Mark, CPU usage is not high 1-4% with a periodic spike to 25-30. I don't see a diffence with the cable in or out. Yes, it can pin 127.0.0.1. 4 packets sent, 0 Lost

Jim, Everything that is running is Microsoft or I can recognize. The only two that I did not know I turned off. It did not help so I turned them back on. Joe

Jim, I uninstalled the network card from device manager and let XP reinstall it on the reboot. I still have the same problem. Any other suggestions? Joe

The card is built into the motherboard. I added a second card and it had the same problem. Joe

OK anyone who wants a challenge, here try this one. I have a XP Pro system that yesterday stopped seeing the network. The network card usually gets its IP address from a Linksys router, but it is reading Invalid IP address, 0.0.0.0 in the Support tab under status. I tried to enter a static ip...

This was over a year ago, so I don't remember doing anything else. The only suggestion I can think of is I used the RAS Server to create a workstation setup floppy. The W98 machine was the only machine that I had to use the floppy to get it to work. I can't remember anymore details, but maybe...

i cannot get my new sound blaster PCI card to function properly. i have made sure that the plugs are in correctly and the card is seated properly. here are the resources my computer is using. i already have the serial com ports disabled in the CMOS. i get no sound at all. if i try to manually...

I am trying to establish a VPN with a W2K server through a Linksys BEFSR41 router. The other office has two systems, one XP Pro, the other Win98SE. With the W98SE I can make the logon and share the network resources. On the XP Pro system I can logon successfully, but I can't see any network...
