Corrupt Networking Stack in Windows 98

[D-Bone]

Thanks to the mighty Kyraath for this one, this fixed a hosed laptop in our shop today.

1. remove TCP/IP from network settings, don't reboot
2. backup the registry
3. view hklocal machine/system/currentcontrolset/services
4. delete both winsock and winsock2
5. then go to VxD (under the same services key)
6. delete AFVXD DHCP MSTCP Winsock Winsock2
7. reboot
8. reinstall TCP/IP

Uhh... 98? <shudder> Isn't that like the black plague or something? Or was that ME...

Well regardless, we still have lamer customers using it. And Kyraath helped me with a problem I had spent like 2 hours working on so HE RULES! YEAH for KYRAATH! :mrgreen:
