red cross on network on system tray

Red crsoo on the network connection icon. Cannot access network and sharing
option form anywhere. Netork is fine and ISP works fine. How can i make the
icon active ?

Hi
Red Cross means that the computer is Not connected to the network.
It can be a Network issue. I.e. inadequate setting on other devices on the
Network (You did not provide any information about the Network so there is
Nothing else that I can say about it).
It can be a trouble with the Vista's Core Network components.
Right Click on the Red Cross and choose the Network and Sharing Center. Look
at the upper left side and click on Diagnose and Repair.
