162455 2003-07-23 12:28:00 There appears to be a network connection fault in the 'Intel (R) PRO/1000 CT' .

The twin-computer icon in the task-bar has a red cross thru it and the Network Connections page tells me it is a Local Area Connection at fault .

When I hover the cursor over the icon it tells me "Local area connection . A network cable is unplugged" .

My internet and Firewire connections seem to be ok .

Can this be fixed? Or should I just delete this LAC as I have no plans to network a PC?

162456 2003-07-23 12:35:00 It would appear that your PC has a built-in LAN or you have a LAN card, but no LAN connection. Therefore the error is real, its simply saying you have no LAN connection.

Delete the LAN connection would seem simplest, one wonders how come its configured?
