Lost connection to LAN

I run a WinME PC on NT4 environment. Recently the connection to LAN suddenly lost during my work on various application.
Is there a freeware which logs the activities of the PC so that I can track what causes the problem?

Nope, not for winME. Upgrade to 2000 or XP and you get an Event Viewer.

Depending on what type of network you have, and switch types, there could be logs on the switch or server that might help troubleshoot the issue - but probably not.

If you lost your connection to the LAN, basic troubleshooting steps will help. Try a different cable, a different port, a different Network Card, etc.
