Thanks Jack,

The newly installed PC (and other XP-PC and Vista-laptop) connect to a
router (by cable), which in turn connects to the broadband modem (also by
cable). The other computers can access the internet correctly. This message
is proof that ;-)

Hi
In order to help in such matter you have to post what the nature of your
Internet connection is and how the connection (Mode, Router) is
configured.

Hi,

I just installed an old XP machine in an existing and working network
with a mix of XP and Vista PCs. From the newly installed XP machine I can
access the files on the other computers, but when trying to log onto the
internet, I get the message that the connection was interrupted. I think
I've checked everything, but must be overlooking something. Does anyone
have any suggestions how to fix this?

Thanks,
