I'm using Windows 98 in my pc, but I want to install internet in the laptop, which is running Windows XP.

When, cable connection doesn't work, you only have to release and renew ip configuration through winipcfg and it works again. (Start->Run->Open:winipcfg).

I want to know if winipcfg is in WinXP too.

Under Windows XP, go to Start -> Run -> cmd

In the command prompt, type ipconfig /renew and it'll repair the IP address and the connection.

Under Windows XP, go to Start -> Run -> cmd

In the command prompt, type ipconfig /renew and it'll repair the IP address and the connection. This can also be done by right clicking on your connection in the system tray (the two computers flashing next to your clock in the bottom right) and pressing "Repair".

If there are no computers flashing next to your clock, goto: Start > Control Panel > Network Connections right click on the connection you want to repair and click "Repair".

This pretty much does the equivilent of:
Start > Run and type "cmd"
Then type: ipconfig /release
Then type: ipconfig /renew
