Network connection unplugged on a work server

Chosenbkr · 04-12-2006, 09:41 PM

Hello folks, my friend has a dell desktop computer that is connected to his work network in the building ( he is a super). He doesn't have administrative rights because it's on a work server. I tried numerous situations to fix his "network unplugged" connection but failed.

I don't know how to take a computer away from a work network and make it, independent with full administrative rights. He doesn't have OS software because he brought the PC from a friend.

I want to reformat the hard drive and I figure that should fix the problem, but he doesn't have OS software.

Can someone assist in this situation. He has wireless internet access in his building as well, but I can't get him to there without an active network card.

I don't know how to take the computer from an outside network and I figure, that is the reason why his network card is unplugged. I think I have to tell the person responsibe for configuring the network for his work, to fix his connection because it's still on their server, but he wants to break feel and have full administrative rights.
