successful WSAStartup not yet performed

    Hi,
    I've installed a linksys network adapter card in a Toshiba Satellite 4090CDS laptop running Windows 98SE. When I boot up I get the message "successful WSAStartup not yet performed" and no internet connection. Linksys say this has nothing to do with their product but is a Winsock problem. Any thoughts on how a non-very tech-savvy person could solve this?

    I should add that the particular laptop ran a linksys adapter successfully before. Then, when it was on loan, someone very small pulled out the card and broke it. I tried using another (cheaper) card which I couldn't get to work on it (though it's working fine on my Dell Inspiron 8500 with Windows XP). So I installed the linksys card from my dell onto the Inspiron and came up with this WSA Startup problem.

    HELP!

    Padraig :eek:
