XP sp3 computer. It's brand new, just got it in. When I attempt to join the domain, I get the following error:

"An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket."
(error code 0x00002736 WSAENOTSOCK)

Googling the error, the only thing I could find was an MS kb to replace Winsock and Winsock2. I got those keys from another XP pc and merged them in. Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem.

Since I had joined a server to the network that same day, I don't believe this is an issue where it can't contact a DC. I've put >500 pc's on our network and never had this error before.

I'm starting to think a wipe and reinstall may be the only solution. Thoughts?
