I'm setting up a small office network for the senior center my grandmother
runs....it's a 4 computer network. I've got them all on a wired network
through a hub on a cable internet connection. I've got all of them onto the
internet, and three of them networked together. The fourth computer, I keep
getting a General Host win32 error on startup, and it won't network in with
the other computers. I can't get the exact error log cause I'm not there,
just trying to get some starting point ideas before I go in tomorrow. I've
run the general virus scans and not come up with anything. Help would be
greatly appreciated.

Start by checking entries in Event Viewer (Start, Run, eventvwr.msc)

Hi Inspector,
It is more likely a Hardware failure with this computer, if all clean from
malwares and viruses!.
Try to check the RAM on this Computer, the NIC is okay, there is no Dust
inside the machine.etc..
Also what about change the computer with a working one and see if it will
happen on the new working computer.
Read this article on how to set up a network;
