More info?)
This means the TCP/IP has not full bound to your network card. You will
need to do a full 241344. When you do that you will need to have either
your Windows CD-ROM or a copy of the Windows setup files.
Please be warned the article is huge & at this point it is 100% a
Windows issue since Windows provides the TCP/IP stack. If you need
further help with this issue I suggest posting the the Windows 98 or
Windows 98 SE newsgroup as it would be on topic over there.
