Limited Connectivity Probs After XP SP2 Upg...

Well, just as an FYI, when I upgraded to XP Pro SP2 the other night to get iTunes 7 working (which, after all, wasn't the issue, it was the Volume Logic plug-in), the PC suddenly lost its Internet connectivity. I could connect to the shares on my home network, and the other PC could still get out on the Net.

I found these tips here:

Problem Description

Solution Description

Some notes/advice:

1. I wasn't able to load the Registry fix via the "fixreg.reg" ascii file, I had to manually edit the Registry

2. This alone didn't fix it, so I went and adjusted the Network card properties manually as directed.

3. After #1 & #2 failed, I used the WinSockXPFix.exe utility. It then worked!

If the problem occurs after I upgrade my other PC, I may just start with the WinSockXPFix.exe.
