After a recent crash, where I got some curiuos Hard disk write errors, my Win98SE machine won't resolve DNS names.
The write errors seemed to be bogus, as the harddrive has never had a problem, and Norton Disk Doctor detected to problems.
In any case, after rebooting, I found that Windows could no longer resolve host names on the internet or on my school lan. Any attempt to ping using a dns name, or use a webpage with a name like "www.windrivers.com" results in a DNS error from ie5. However, I can use Network Neighborhood to browse the local network and I can ping other computers if I use their ip addresses.
I've tried removing and reinstalling all the items in the Network Control Panel. I've tried manually configuring the DNS servers. None of these have worked so far. Any ideas at all would be greatly appreciated.
