Follow the other advice first, but if all is OK there you may want to check that the DNS client is running in: control panel>administrative tools>services

Can you type ipconfig/all at the command prompt and post back the results for us please.

Ok here goes

Windows 2000 IP Config

Host name: Mark Rolfe
Primary DNS suffix:
NOD type: Broadcast
IP Routing Enabled: No
WINS Proxy enabled: No

Ethernet Adapter Local area connection 2

Connection specific DNS Suffix:
Description: Intel PRO 100+ Management Adapter
Physical Address: 00-DO-B7-1A-84-E2
DHCP Enabled: Yes
Auto configuration enabled: Yes
IP Address: 0.0.0.0
Subnet Mask: 0.0.0.0
Default Gateway:
DHCP Server:
DNS Servers:

Also did control panel/administrative tools and it said DNS was running..

No corruption or none working drivers in Device Manager (except for the soundcard as I just removed it!)

Thanks guys you are all very helpfull, appreciate!

Curious that it's called Connection 2 - have a look in START > Settings > Network & Dialup Connections to see if there is a connection 1, and that it is not disabled.

Also check that connection 2 does not say that the cable is unplugged.

Nope there's not a connection one, it's always been 2 even when it was working... thanks though :)

Towny - Yes my MAC is way superior to the PC I agree, I just leave my MAC h/d soely for music and media apps and nothing else, being on the internet on it is extremely temp!

that could be a a dial up adapter or if it is the cable modem could indicate a problem with your dhcp client - check admin tools in the ctrl panel and services. could also be usb drivers need reinstall. take everyone's advice swap to a nic
