Aright my friends, I have run into a problem that I have never encounetered before. I tried to install dsl on a neighbors computer and it didnt work. It had win Me on it. I hate Win ME. So i got rid of that since i figured ME was the reason it didnt want to connect and put WIN 2k on it. Win2k won't connect either. I have tried the following:

1) Re install new network card
2) Uninstall tcp/ip by deleting winsock and winsock2 in regedit
3) Re installed netbeu to replace tcp/ip as suggested on internet.
4) reformat machine..again...and again.
5) Install new Kingston NIC

Computer is plugged in and realizes it is plugged in to a 10 mbps ethenet lan. It is on a regular patch cable with hub running into dsl router. PLEASE HELP!!!
 
You story is a little confusing but let try.

I assume that there is a DSL Modem, and a Cable/DSL Router. The connetion is working, and other computers can use it.

So, this computer Network Settings are Not working.

Take out (or disable on board) Network Card (NIC), uninstall the NIC drivers in the Device manager and boot the computer one time without the NIC. This process would clean up the Network system.

Switch off install the card and switch On install the drivers and make sure that they are installed correctly, and then continue with installing the Network components.

This page has links and instructions for most the Windows OS?, Windows Netowrk - Installing & Sharing

In General you can debug the Network Setting of the computer following these steps.

Step One. Check the Network parameters in the Computer?s Device Manager. Make sure that the drivers are installed correctly; there is No IRQ conflict, and No Ghost installation. http://www.ezlan.net/faq#ghost

Step Two.Verify Basic network setting in the OS: http://www.ezlan.net/Installing#verify
If the above two Steps indicates that every thing looks good but functionally it does not work.

Step Three. Check (and repair if necessary) the Socket Layers, Winsock, and or refresh the TCP/IP Stack. http://www.ezlan.net/clean#refreshnet
