640626 2008-02-15 06:57:00 Reinstalled WinXP on the home PC.
For some reason it now loses the IP, do an IPConfig and I have no gateway and 0.0.0.0.

If I enter it manually into TCP/IP and then remove it again it cures it.
For a short time.

Leaving it in there doesn't fix it either.

Installed SPs, added/removed components, buggered if I can see what it wants or is missing.

netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt
Make sure you restart computer.

640628 2008-02-15 08:09:00 Perhaps a drive update for the network card? CYaBro (73)
640629 2008-02-15 08:25:00 Done both those.
Also ran WinsockXP fix.
It keeps it while I have traffic, if I go off the net about 15 mins or so later it loses it again.
Its a clean install, redid chipset drivers, repair installed Windows, out of ideas.

640630 2008-02-15 08:42:00 Another thing to try:

In Device Manager go to the network card properties and on the Power Management tab untick the option of 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'

640631 2008-02-15 19:35:00 Did that too.
Its something with Windows.
I ran TweakXP and Add/Removed some XP components.

Put them all back but nope.

Its weird.........

Might have to do another install.........

640632 2008-02-15 19:45:00 router setting current?

I just did it to mine and had to reenter my details into the router.

640633 2008-02-16 01:58:00 Clean install cured it.

I suspect it was some Windows component I removed. Even though I put them back, it obviously stuffed something.

I'll now go remove bits one at a time with caution and see which one it didn't like.
