Vista - Network Problem

Hi,
I am having a problem with windows vista 32 premium. The connection
icon at the lower right of my screen, the one with the two monitors,
has a red X between them. I try to check my network connections, but
when the window pops up it sits there loading for about 5 minutes and
then doesn't show me the connections. In the one labeled Network and
Sharing center I can't click anything and it bugs my computer. I can
only close the window. Anyone have any idea what is going on?

Charlie

I can't offer you a definitive answer, sorry. My best guess is that
your ethernet driver needs updating.

When you open Device Manager (via Control Panel) do you see any
devices which are marked with a yellow exclamation point?

There aren't any, all networking drivers are up-to-date. The thing is,
I am still connected to the internet.

I can also connect it the internet or existing networks, but cannot acces the
Network and Sharing area, nor simply the Network file.... something is
amiss...
