I read the reply about this a few months ago, but nothing worked for me. Any more ideas? For new users, nothing is comming up in the dialup networking and network connections thing in the control panel in win2k. I have just re-installed win2k, VMWare and vairous other little things. Now i can still connect to the net. but i cant change any settings. I think it was something to do with VMWare, but how do i fix any files it wrote over with out a full reinstall.
