Jen - check your PC for spyware/adware. I
have fixed about 10 home PC's for friends this year, all due to
spyware/adware. One of the spyware "viruses", for lack of a better term,
screws with the NIC drivers. Some of the anti-spyware software will fix
it. Check out www.webroot.com for Spy
Sweeper, which has a one-week trial version. Also, www.safer-networking.org for SpyBot
(freeware). Be careful trying other so-called "anti-spyware"
software. A lot are spyware themselves.

Subject: Re: ShopTalk: AMD was XP and
SP2
Hi all,
Does anyone out there know if there are
compatability issues with AMD and major software? (MS Office, A/V
software etc.)
I just bought a new comp and had AMD highly
recommended to me... am having issues with MS Word and McAfee (Both before and
after installing XP SP2 so that isn't is in and of itself). The onboard
LAN didn't work so I am hoping I merely fluked onto an issue with the
motherboard or something??
Just thought I'd ask since so many computer
questions were going around...
Jen
PS - it is a XP 2600+ Barton
chip on a DFI KM400-MLV motherboard... if that matters.
