634871 2008-01-28 22:53:00 I'm trying to get the internet to work on a customers POS machine in the workshop.
I've installed a network card and drivers but it WILL NOT connect to our network.

When I run ipconfig in command all i get is an error message:

An internal error occured, the request is not supported.

I did a search on google and changed the path to be c: windows\system32 as suggest ect but still nothing.

Any ideas why the command might not be working? Could it be linked to the internet not working?

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults : netsh winsock reset catalog
Reset TCP/IP stack to installation defaults: netsh int ip reset reset.log

You need to reboot after running each command.
The above only works for XP SP2
There is another way to reset winsock if it does not have SP2
