Nvidia network connection and internet  disrupted

system · 2006-11-24T09:14:05.000Z

Hello,
I tried avast yesterday after using avg. When rebooting it had the message aavm error rpc and pointed to a trojan which was my firewall (look and stop) and stopped my connection to the internet (cable not connected since I have broadband).
I uninstalled avg and told avast to skip the file in which the firewall is located ; then rebooted.
Avast started working properly , however there was no way I could reconnect to the internet ; the nvidia network controller was disconnected as well as the cable. I tried to reinstall the driver without success. >:( >:(
I have a windows xp , a gigabyte board with amd 64.
Any hints?
Thank you.

Did you uninstall AVG or just disable it? Disable was never enough
AAVM (RPC) errors are related to two active antivirus in the same computer.

Which firewall do you use?

chess51, gave his firewall, Look & Stop.

Lost Internet Connection - To recover you internet connection, try downloading and running WinsockXPfix: [url]http://www.snapfiles.com/get/winsockxpfix.html[/url]

If you have, XP SP2, try Windows Start button, Run - type ‘netsh winsock reset’ without the quotes - this may be enough to fix the issue.
