I have a small home network with 2 pc and a laptop.
On one computer I cannot get an ip address. When I check the ip address it just has 0.0.0.0.
I can boot into linux and it works fine.
I'm running windows XP home on all three computers.

Another thing I have noticed, when I got to the set up network wizard. It wants to pick connect through another computer with an internet connection. It says it has found an unknown internet connection.

I cannot find any reference to a unknow connection.

I have tried running the setup home netword wizard on all computers and power them off, but they still want to connect to the internet throught another computer.

The two computers that get an ip can see each other and share files.

Thanks for any help
