Dang! Does running netsh firewall show state show that the firewall is
disabled? If so try booting into Safe Mode with networking again to see if
that works which should disable the ipsec service if there is an ipsec
policy assigned to the computer that could also block access or other
startup service doing the same. If none of that works I would try resetting
tcp/ip as described in the KB article below. If that does not work I would
remove the computer from the domain and try again after using netsh firewall
show state show to verify that the firewall is disabled. If still a no go I
would probably try replacing the network adapter. I also assume the
computers you are trying to ping it from are on the same network with the
same subnet mask and otherwise an incorrect default gateway on one of the
computers involved can cause a problem like you describe. If you have a
crossover cable available try connecting another computer directly to your
computer with that crossover cable plugged into the network adapter of both
computers to act as a simple network. --- Steve
