Network help 911

Hey everyone,

So i downloaded the newest cain and abel, which came bundled with a 'newer' version of winpcap. i installed it and it like nuked my network settings or something. when i go into ipconfig through cmd, it says 'windows ip ocnfiguration' like it normally would… but everything else is missing. i dont even have the headings for the fields (ie default gateway etc.) let alone values assigned to them… when i open my network connections folder, there is nothing there. at all. when i reboot, i am presented with a linksys page that tells me that i am connected to my network just fine, no problems, but it can't find the internet…. i tried uninstalling winpcap and installing the older one i downloaded (3.1 i think) and still no dice. ive never come across this before, anyone have any suggestions?

thanks

ps: winxp-h sp2 as well, other pc's on the network, both wired and wireless are experiencing no problems.

Thanks for the ideas guys, I was going to try and reinstall the adapter today, so I'll try that… but also, how do i configure winpcap? I think this would most likely be the error. or so it seems. any info on configuring it?

thanks again
