Re: Old XP PC has lost internet connection
For future reference then Tink, the Break key is up on top right of the keyboard. It's often labelled Pause/Break.

Reassuring to see the system does recognise that there is a network adaptor installed. However, it still remains to get it doing something useful..

Edit:

Do you have a separate modem and router? Just thinking it might be worth trying the pc direct to the modem if possible, just to rule out the router as the problem. You'd need to power-cycle the modem before switching on pc.
