Mark, Last weekend I installed ICS (WinME), and lost Internet connection as well. After uninstall, which was the last thing I tried, everything was fine. Here's what I did prior to uninstalling ICS, but might still work after uninstall... Try removing your modem and network adapters from Device Manager, as well as TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, and your network adapter in CP/Network - config tab. Reboot, let PnP detect everything, then run Internet connection wizard to reinstate your isp account settings. It worked for me - hopefully it doesn't cause more problems for you, but it shouldn't. Either way, it beats fdisking - good luck. Al Thompson ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mark C.
