With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

Windows XP Winsock missing after Office 2000 installation.

Asked by wgenglan in Miscellaneous Networking, TCP/IP

Tags: missing, winsock, xp

I have a computer with WinXP that had a working dial up networking connection until after I
installed Office 2000. During the installation, a question came up asking about installing
Outlook 2000 over another version of Outlook, but I can't remember the question.  I think that
the question was in regard to uninstalling the current Outlook (Outlook Express in XP) first.

After this, dial up networking connects fine, but no application can browse the net, and no
ping works to it.  Ping to the 127.0.0.1 does work ok.  One troubleshooting guide I saw told
me to look for the winsock files.  When I do a find for the specific files, the dlls, none are found.

What I want to know is this: If I copy the files from a CD or floppy to the system directory,
and then register them, will this fix the problem?  I was thinking that I read somewhere that
WinXP doesn't use the same windows sockets methods to communicate.  Any help here will
be great.  Thanks in advance.
