Hi,
I have just tried to reconnect my old xp computer through use of an ethernet cable. But unlike before it wasnt just plug and go. I have tried many times to enter the username and password but to no avail. It just wont work. It comes up with Error connecting to .......... Error 678: the romote computer did not respond. I have never seen this before and i am completley foxed. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

See if this helps;
You may receive Error 678 or Error 769 when you try to connect to the Internet or when you try to browse the Internet after you install Windows XP Service Pack 2
