sorry to bother you people yet again,my network has been working fine for a
few months ,server is running clarkeconnect i:e linux, both pc`s on win me,i
suspect cable fault as nic on 2nd pc shows green then dies when me boots in
but shows ok on hub,the only thing i have noticed is acpi error code 10 or
22 the mainboard is an I440lx with a bios of 97,it works if i move it to my
room(2nd pc),so is there a way i can check the line with a loopback cable as
i dont have £60 to buy a cable tester?

if you suspect a cable issue, simply start by checking continuity. make sure you have a connection between one end of the cable and
the other. Did you makes the cable yourself? also NIC drivers and a weird compatibility problem that has cropped up on LAN's with
multiple NIC card manufacturers. The 'auto sense" feature hasn't been working well.
