I've been using ICS for awhile and it was working great until recently. Now, when I turn on the client PC, it cannot cannot to network drives, browse the internet, etc. Repairing the connection failed. So did trying to re-make the connection. I also ran the network troubleshooter all the way through. Nothing is working. So, I tried a system restore. That worked, but now its doing the same thing and now when I try a system restore, it says "Restoration Incomplete" no matter what date I choose.

To get us up to par with you, can you give us information about your network?
1. You have not told us how many PCs are there in your Home-network (guessed it so). I assume it is just two from your statement :"Now, when I turn on the client PC, it cannot cannot to network drives, browse the internet, etc"
2. What type of Internet access you have: Dial-Up Broadband-> DSL or Cable
3. How have you networked these two PCs?
A: Wired network? B. Wireless Network? Details of HUB /Switch or Router.(Make and Model) linking the Wide Area Network and the Local A rea Network.
