Hi, i've been having computer troubles lately,
I'm not sure if this is a virus or not.
Lately, when i log on to my computer.
I get an error message saying
"TCP/IP network transport not installed"
The title of the message was:
"Mobile Device Properties"
I have not been able to access the internet since i
first received this message. (I'm postingn this
from another computer)
Some details:
I'm running win 2000 pro
I have a firewall (norton)
I have a virus scanner (norton)
internet via LAN at my home. (cable)
I dont believe i have run any executable files that i have downloaded
recently
This error just suddenly appeared
Ways I have attempted to solve this:
-Restart (duh)
-Reinstall tcp/ip protocol for my network adapter
-Windows troubleshooter
-Scan for viruses with latest definitions from norton
Stuff I found out:
-My Ip address and subnet mask changed from what it usually is.
-I dont have a default gateway
-My Aston shell messed up b4 i had these problems.
-The error message wasn't found in the Windows help archive of error messages
-Each time i got this error, it wasnt recorded in Computer management> Event Viewer>System.
Anybody noe what's wrong? Can anybody help me?
Any help wud be much appreciated.

I assume you used add/remove windows components in control panel - add/remove programs to uninstall, then reinstall networking? If you haven't yet, run command prompt and c:>ipconfig /all - c:>ipconfig /flushdns - c:>ipconfig /renew . Run a full checkdisk as well when ipconfig is done. c:>chkdsk /x /f /r or just c:>chkdsk /r to recover any bad sectors.
i got this error when trying to renew:
The following occurred when renewing adapter : An operaton was attempted on something that is not a socket.
What is this?
