no network connections after windows update
are you an administrative user? can you create a new user account for testing
and be sure it has administrative privileges and see if you have the same issue?

Thanks Barb,
Glad to see you are back. Hmm, the link recommends I use recovery from the installation disk. Unfortunately I dont have the disk, dont worry it is a legal copy of windows and validated! Is there anything else I can do here?
