Hey there. I encountered a similar problem when trying to change my IP Address as discussed in this thread here. [URL] I tried following their steps, but got no results. I attached some pictures
View 14 RepliesI have been troubleshooting an error with both my WIRED Internet Connection and AUDIO since installing Windows 7, over a previously running XP SP3 OS on the same Comp.I have 3 desktops running through this working connection (Router) with no problems. If I connect directly to the Modem, no problem on the internet.Through the Router, my computer retains its connection one way, cmd. ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew.This lasts for a period but if ever awaking my comp, the yellow explanation mark returns and i repeat the command.Audio is also not working. I know its likely a driver error, NIC Card, maybe, but its an old comp we put together, what specs do you need to resolve this matter?

I have one computer that won't find a ip address when coming out of the netgear switch. I have to run straight from the D-link router to the pc to get on line. The other PC works fine coming out of the switch. Is there something I can check to get the one pc to recognize the IP address when coming out of the netgear switch

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Linksys WRT54G v2 & latest OEM firmware. A few days ago I tried to release & renew my IP address to get a new one. It did not change, and just thought the Comcast modem was remembering the IP and just went about my normal web surfing. Today, nothing would connect to the internet. My WRT54Gs status was fine & had the same IP it had a few days ago.
I tried to release & renew the IP again, nothing changed. I called Comcast tech, and the automated thing reset the modem, still no internet, still same IP address. I released the IP & unplugged the router for about 5 mins, renewed & got the same IP again. I released again, and reset to factory defaults, same IP again. I tried connecting directly to the modem and see if I works, and it did!
I had another D-Link DI-624 Rev C v2.70 .. released the IP, and hooked it up .. everything works fine. So for S&Gs I released and hooked up the WRT54G to see if the IP changed at all, nope same IP! I would like to use the Linksys again, as the D-Link sometimes got funky under heavy load.
how do i release my ip address so that i can use my computers immediately one after the other on the internet?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy internet connection shows 'no internet access' even though my ISP shows the connection is coming into the house just fine. I usually use a router (NetGear-WNR3500U) but I right now I have the Ethernet connection plugged directly into my PC. I tried directly plugging into my laptop and the internet works just fine. So I know the problem resides in the PC.
Some troubleshooting things I have tried.
-Power cycled my modem, router and PC.
-Repinged my connection from my ISP(Comcast Xfinity)
-Used the reset option on the router and the modem
-I was walked through the internet options needed with the tech support from my ISP to make sure DHCP was enabled and every other setting was correct, and he cleared me that all settings were correct.
-Tried ipconfig commands to /renew and /release my IP When I tried ipconfig /renew I get the error 'An error occurred while renewing interface Local Area Connection : unable to contact your DHCP server'
-Restored my PC to a restore point where the Internet was working
All of these options did not work.
What I think the problem is and I am not sure how to fix it, when I run the ipconfig /all command my Auto configuration IPv4 Address shows 169.254.112.76 which I was told is a router IP address even though I am plugged directly from the modem to my PC with an Ethernet cord. So I think that's my problem? But I am not sure.
I have a port that remains allocated (Port 5150) after removal on some software and now thta I wish to install an upgrade it tells me that the port is already allocated.
Is it possible to release it so I can install the upgrade tot he same port?

The issue we are running into is re-installing it. We don't have the original CD, but we do have the key. I have a CD full of 7 OEM installs, but I can't find one that will accept this key. I have the PC installed to OEMALL 7 Pro currently hoping that I could then change the key, but it won't accept it, it says the key is not valid.Anyone have an idea how to re install this version of 7?

View 1 Replies View RelatedFirst, when I try to release a USB device (thumb drive) from W7, it says, "OK to remove USB storage device" but, the device STILL has power applied to it. XP cut the power prior to allowing you to remove the drive. What gives? W7 has corrupted the drive several times already, and WILL NOT remove power even though the device drops off your explorer.
Second weird problem is missing icons after a program is installed. I install Fallout 3 for instance, and the program start icons are missing. I have to manually copy and paste the launcher into my Games folder in the start menu from the explorer files. Where are the start icons going? Never happened in XP, ever.
Third, how do you arrange your start menu like XP with the "open all users" from the start menu? W7 did away with this. I like to GROUP my programs into folders so the start menu stays managable;
Applications
Games
Accessories
System Tools
Fourth, it seems to interpolate to a CRT! on many resolutions, resulting in a terrible blurry mess Why? A CRT has no native resolution, that's why I keep it (Dell 19" Trinitron). Are there 64-bit drivers I can't find? It will only accept it's "generic" drivers. XP allowed any resolution I want with 100% clarity. It isn't the monitor. AERO makes it WAY worse, too. Same Nvidia 260GT card in both systems, but with 64-bit drivers video card drivers.
I have all new 64-bit drivers and hardware, and W7-64 bit has all manner of BSOD's and lock-ups. Thank God the, "roll back to last bootable configuration" works. I've used W 3.11 on up and this OS is driving me nuts right now. First BSOD I had to reset the CMOS to fix a "hardware" issue that would not let it boot into windows. But, that's SOFTWARE.
Then, it seemed to not keep time right, so I shut down and removed power, replaced the CMOS battery just to be sure and AGAIN it would not boot to windows. I had to roll back the install to the last good configuration to fix this BSOD. So, I have issues all right. I can't tell what so far. It may be a bad mainboard (MSI P55 GD80). It isn't heat as the CPU has never gone above 40C. I hope it was a bad Lithium cell that was corrupting the BIOS. We'll see.
Once it is running, my experience with this hard to operate OS has not been too good compared to XP's super polished user interface. W7 seem text based over visual, as in GRAPHICAL user interface. W7 control panel is awful. There are a lot of good updates, but the interface is not easy to work with quickly. Too busy and too text based interface. I turned off all the AERO stuff as it just gets in my way.
Once I forget how good XP is, I guess I'll learn to live with this OS. But if this OS is like Apple's, leave Apple alone!

Windows 7 64bit build 7100 RC1 runs flawlessly on my PC. Will I be able to update to the final release, or will I have to do a clean installation?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering where nvidia's pre release driver gets stored on the computer so that I don't have to re-download every time!
I want to copy them to my Setups folder, so that I can re use them.

Also, why do I get a WDDM v1.0 driver and not a v1.1?
I bought a Sony Vaio laptop with Vista and a promised upgrade to Windows 7 when officially released. To jump start, I installed Windows 7 RC Build 7100 from Microsoft over the shipped Vista OS.
I just received the promised Windows 7 upgrade fulfillment from Sony but when I try to install it it tells me that Windows 7 is already installed (duh.)
Is the RC based Windows 7 installation that I've built up over the last few months now junk bits or is there a way to use the serial number on the proof of license sticker on the fulfillment install disk Sony sent me and associate it with my current RC installation to make it legal and avoid any future trouble?
I'd ask Sony but they haven't responded to anything else I've asked about so I'm not sure there are any actual people left in their "service" arm.
