My laptop -300mhz Celeron with 96 MB of RAM- has a USB ethernet card, IPX, TCP/IP, and file/print sharing installed.
It runs standard SE4 fine, but it won't run Gold UNLESS it has been plugged into the network at least once during this session.
In other words:
-reboot. No network. Crash. "Cannot activte Windows sockets"
-reboot- Network. SE4 gold will start as long as the machine isn't rebooted again- it can be unplugged from the network.
-reboot. No network. Plug in network. SE4G works, as above.
As you can imagine, this is a bit annoying
Anyone have an idea on how to fix it? I've tried removing TCP/IP so far. No effect. There's nothing special runing, no antivirus, no firewall. Just drivers.
