If the hardware and cable are not issues, try to upgrade the NIC driver or
modify the speed. This search result may help.

Both lights are on, a green light and a yellow or orange looking light,
but there's two lights on for sure at the back of the pc where the cable
plugs in at.

What if you go Start>Run, type "cmd" and at the prompt type "ipconfig
/renew"? Does it fix the problem?

I just tried ipconfig/renew and it didn't work. I had the following
message come up after hitting enter;
Windows IP Configuration
No operation can performed on Local Area Connection while it has media
disconnected.

Bob,
I'll try what you have listed now and see where that goes. Just wanted
to give a quick update.

Thanks for the ideas and I'll update after I try this next step.

Thanks.
