   Not that I know of... It 'broke' during the course of the morning after   
   working fine a few hours before.   
      
   I've run a systems diagnostic from Help/Support/Tools that said a driver   
   is failing (network adapter Realtek  RT8139 Family PCI Fast Ethernet   
   NIC) and so I deleted it and reinstalled from the CD that came with the   
   computer. It's still showing as Failed but the computer seems to be   
   using another driver now, that passes; Realtek RTL 8139/810 Family Fast   
   Ethernet NIC and that's the one that's shown as being the connection to   
   the net when I click on Network Connections.
