I have a HP 8695C Pavilion on my lan, and recently I've had problems as far as not being able to access files or get to the shard printer. Today I decided to work on this problem. I went into my network connections and deleted all my adapters, netbui protocols, and TCP/IP. There was nothing left. I restarted the Machine, and it saidd it found new devices, but I didn't have driver disks for them so I just canceled out of that. I went to the HP website but all they have is a Keboard driver.


I put My TCP/IP, netbui, protocols back on the machine, and my Network, and dial up adapter are installed. I went into Device Mangager, and it showed my network adapters being fine. However whenever I go to my network config, it says my network is not complete, but everything seems installed right. This computer connects to my router so All I need is the NIC working.

Also when I type ipconfig at the command prompt it says IP configuration failed to initialize.

btw: the OS is Win 98SE
