Does anyone know if there are any animated icons for the connection like we had in Vista and the older systems? At the moment I'm talking about the wired connections not the wireless. I did see a little bar graph for it.
View 1 RepliesJust how many people out there miss the animated network icons on the taskbar present in older Windows systems upto and including Vista?
I mean the icons are very nice and all but surely it wouldn't have took much to add some animation. It is kind of nice to see that you have activity going on without opening a browser to convince you. Also it was easy to see if there was activity going on that shouldn't be. There has been many a time I have used it as a first step to discovering dodgy background tasks.
When I connect to my PC from my laptop via Remote Desktop, it moves all my icons. Is there any way to disable this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to add additional icons to the 'system32pnidui.dll' file. That's where you pick which icon you want to represent the active named network in the Network And Sharing Center. I did a search in this forum on 'network icons' but didn't find anything. Aside from all the permissions restrictions what app can be used and what kind(s) of files will work in W7? I have lots of .png images that I would like to use if they will work.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've had a weird error with Windows 7. It happened after I tried to remove the watermark and edit user32 (or something like that). I do have the battery icon, but it's missing the battery info. I believe it's a explorer related error, because each time this happens and I go to right click the desktop explorer.exe stops responding.
Does anybody have any information on this, or how I could repair my system to a state before? System restore is disabled on this machine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have RC 7100x64 connected (per cat cable) to a wireless router. Windows 7 created a home network. Router is perfectly fine and my 2 laptops automatically login into the internet. In the beginning my despktop also jsut was able to be online after booting up.
At some point (I did all updates, installed all my software) the PC does not connect to the internet anymore. Tehonly way to get online is to:
- open Network Center
- leftclick "Connections: local area connection" --> disable
- go to trouble shoot problems
- then it finds " the local area network adapter is disabled"
- I click " fix it" and it will work.
I attached the screens
How can I make it connect automatically (as it did before)? I set all services I could think of to " automatic" (IP Helper etc.). From researching I read that XP had a similar problem with SP3. not sure if it is related, but coudl an update be at fault?
Everything is up to date, Kasperksy keeps viruses away, I did not do one of the registry-cleaner tools.
Since it worked at first, one of my isntallations or updates must have done it. I also did some of the "service optimizations" from here bu tundid all of them to resolve my problem.
One could say I should isntall a newer built, but first I just want to use it before I buy the real deal in October. Second, it used to work with RC 7100 and going through all the trouble reinstalling is a hassle.
Everything else works well.
Out of the blue, I lost my Network and Internet connectivity Windows 7 gave me excellent troubleshooting tips like to check if I have a cable connected.Device manager tells me that my network adapter is working properly (Realtek GBE).When I try to connect to a network it tells me no network connection found. The machine is still configured as it was out of the box (relatively new machine - Dell XPS Studio 9100 - Windows 7 Home Edition 64 Bit). It been working fine for almost a year. I sincerely hope reformatting and reinstalling Windows 7 is not the answer to every windows 7 problem
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo, we have a network of about one terabyte of storage on it. It is normally connected to my laptop, a desktop and our Playstation 3. Obviously it connects via internet with our wireless router and such but for some reason it won't connect to my laptop? I have everything except a few programs on the network (Everything from my documents to my pictures to my other programs are stored on the network)...thus not being able to access it is a HUGE difficulty
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am doing some troubleshooting and I want to completely remove my network connection. I remember with Windows XP when I did this, it would re-detect the network card and reload the drivers and settings after I rebooted.
I can disable the connection but not delete. How do I remove the connection in Windows 7 x64?
My computer took so long to identify network and lately it cannot identify anymore.
View 1 Replies View Relatedmy router is brand spankin new, 802.11n. the modem has since been replaced... but for the life of me, i cannot get a decent download/upload speed.I Used to get 28-31mb download on speedtest.net. then later it dropped to 17-25, and i said, Ok, thats not bad, not great, but not bad. now im down to .81mb-1.2mb average if im lucky i pull 3 or 4.my upload speed has always been no higher than 1mb. i am not 100% sure why, im prety sure they do it so i dont run servers, but it still seems a little low IMHO.I dunno whats going on, i have a bit of network experience, but all software end, nothing hardware end in the way of routers etc?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIt seems like it takes several 5-10 minutes for windows 7 to realize its supposed to grant my computer access to the network. After boot up, I open the network and only see my own computer. I refresh several times over 5 minutes and finally the other network computers appear.
How do I fix this?
About once every two days, my connection to the Internet dies, and won't come back without a System Restore.
I've got two XP machines along with my Windows 7 machine on a D-Link router. About once every two days, my Windows 7 machine just decides that it won't connect to anything on the Internet including chat clients. Without refreshing the router, I can still connect with my other two machines, so I know it's not the router. I even do a restart on my Windows 7 machine and it still won't connect. The only thing that works is a System Restore.
Any ideas of what I can repair without having to do a System Restore?

I have really slow internet and I am running on a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit. The download is 346.8 MB and the estimated time starts at around 9 hours. But even after 5 hours since I start it only says the estimate is 8 hours! Then when it finally gets to 7 a little window pops up and says the network connection timed out.

Windows Network Diagnostics says it can't connect. Status shows limited connection. Manual disconnect and re-connect says "Not in range" although it shows in the available networks with strong signal. Disable and re-enable causes the entire system to lock up and I have to power down. The only reliable way to reestablish a connection is to reboot or wait some random amount of time until the system decides to recognize the wireless network again.
