I installed vista ultimate update and then after downloading the drivers for
my sound card my network quit working. I am unable to connect to the
Internet. I have another computer in the room and it connects fine to the
Internet. It is running Windows XP. I have them running through a router
LInksys WRT54GC. My XP computer connects through the router or directly. I
have tried both with the Vista but no go. Am I missing something on the
Vista that I should be aware of for connecting. I can't understand why I
was connected and then it just dropped. I have tried rolling the system
back to before installing the sound card driver but no luck. I really need
help. Thanks in advance!

Have you uninstalled / reinstalled a Vista compatible driver for the NIC?
 
I got it. When Vista was installed it turned on the DNS Client in Services.
I just had to disable that and all is well. :)
