Error code 10 - NIC

I m using dell laptop 600m.

My onboard network card (Broadcom) is showing a "!" with error code 10.

What I did:
1) I reinstalled the driver several times and check through any hidden divices that present.
2) I re-installed the windows xp home (by upgrading). Scan disk countless with chkdsk command and several other utilities. I ran the net diagnostic, of course it also failed.
3) Scanned for virus. It scanned a virus so call svchost.exe and guess it has been deleted.

The odd thing is that the NIC is loded fine with no problem in device manager and the little window present on the taskbar, but it has no respond (no light) when I plug in the cable. Then, when I restart the comp and the code 10 came back.

It has respond by pinging 127.0.0.1 but not any other. TTL replied was just 64 instead of 128 last time
Tried the command ipconfig/all....just reply in a single phrase: something like windows IP configuration.


Pls help, I m completely lost on this.

Thanks,

    Start | Run 'CMD'
    This gives you a plain black Command window and a drive letter. Type the following, ending each with

    press Enter

    which is an action, not actual type letters:

    C:
    CD \
    MD \DOWNLOAD
    CD \DOWNLOAD
    IPCONFIG /ALL >My.txt
    EXIT

    There is a considerable pause after the >My.txt line because instead of displaying the test, this command is re-writing the report to a txt file in the DOWNLOAD folder.
    'Exit' lets you out of the black Command window.
    Now Start | Run 'Notepad'
    Do an 'Open' to the DOWNLOAD folder to the file My(.txt) and you will see and can copy the full report, pasting it in your DellTalk thread.

    Hi BBraxton,

    I did some modification to change some services under services.msc. What I did is just change some services from "auto start" to "manual" follow this computer which I can access internet here.

    I then restart my notebook and guess wht, the little LAN twin windows appeared on the taskbar.

    I then did what u told and the finding as below:

    Media state : Disconnected

    Host name : ssspring-L

    Primary DNS suffix : "blank"

    Mode type : Hybrid

    IP Routing Enabled : No

    Wins Proxy Enabled : No

    Ethernet adapter LAN

    Media state : Media disconected

    Description : Broadcom 570x Gigabit Integrated Controller

    Physical address : 00-0F-1F-BC-B3-F1

    To double confirm it work, I then restarted the notebook again, but strangely, it turned back with code 10 and the twin window disappeared, no matter how many time I restarted again.

    What happen??

    Under registry, I did found that it detected my NIC. Confuse :smileysurprised:

    After some working, my little windows finally came out consistently...i guess....:p

    But when I plug in a known working cable, the light doesn't light up and the windows remain disconnect.

    Any idea what is the problem? Hardware failure or setting? I can ping 127.0.0.1 with reply TTL = 128 now.

    Thanks!

    How long has it been since manufacture of the 600m?
    Are you able to work around the problem by (borrowing and?) using PC card wireless ?

    My opinion is that you should remove any hard-coded TCP/IP address and
    * "Use DHCP to assign TCP/IP address automatically"
    * Use WINS (for DHCP / DNS)
    * enable NETBEUI over TCP/IP
    * (optionally) 'Add' gateway TCP/IP (address of your router)

    Start | Settings | Network connections | Local Area Network

    Properties

    Look at the TCP/IP area (icon properties)
