I just Installed Windows XP X64 onto my desktop PC and cannot access the internet. My graphics is not displaying like it's supposed to, and the sound isn't working. The graphics, and sound I can figure out myself, but the internet I've come to a brick wall. I have a 1394 connection, but there's no local area connection. I'm at a wall, I'm using a linksys router and I get no I.P. address. I've tried going directly from the modem to the PC, and powercycling my modem, and still nothing
I think that I have a virus which is stopping me from 1) Installing Norton Internet Security 2005 properly, and 2) Stopping me from accessing all anti-virus related sites, for example - www.symantec.com, ww.grisoft.com, www.pandasoftware.com, and when i tried to download AVG 6.0 from another site which was unrelated to antivirus, I found that I could access the site but the download failed.
After long periods of my internet connection being idle (2+ hours usually), all programs requiring internet access are unable to connect. By idle I mean I leave to run some errands with no programs other than Zone Alarm running. My DSL modem still has all lights flashing and active. There are a couple other scenarios where this occurs as well. Ex. I'm playing WoW for extended periods but not using the internet through any other program, then upon alt-tabbing no other applications are able to connect to the internet even though WoW is still connected and functioning. Rebooting the router/modem doesn't fix it, but rebooting the comp does.
a pc with windows xp pro suddenly started not to access the internet or the workgroup it normally worked on. ethernet card is present in hardware devices, network connection says it "is there", the IP numbers etc. are all as they were.I have even tried a rollback to the time it worked fine, but no net
computer in my possession crashed, and when i reset, my internet has gone wonky. I use MSN as my ISP, and before, i could access internet explorer, or firefox, or any program without ever actually having to sign in to MSN. after the crash, however, i now have to sign in to access internet explorer, firefox, and a couple programs. what angers me, however, is that i DONT have to sign in to access trillian. Limewire, also, will connect, but wont download anything without msn being logged in. How do i get back to how it was? And no, system restore did not work.
My Laptop was crashed. I could not recover with recovery disc, so I installed xp Pro from OS from the CD I had for my another PC. Every thing is fine but now I can not access my programs, all though I do see them on my C/program folder.

I did not delete any partitions when i reinstalled. Is there any awy to access the old user names?
just installed a second internal hard drive. tried to access bios at start up (to setup hard drive) but system doesn't respond to ANY keyboard keys. system just continues with normal Windows boot-up. once XP is running all functions and software seem fine. no matter how many times I try at "Press Del to enter Setup" nothing works. Jusat before I had this problem, I had a problem with software (which I have removed) that caused my system to lock up. when I rebooted system stopped and offerred reboot options, ea: Safe Mode, but I the arrow keys would not work, system just went directly to Windows boot up.how can I access the bios if system doesn't respond to keyboard?
I have posted the message below to the Microsoft Windows Xp email help service. I have decided to post a copy here as well so that there is more chance someone who reads it may be able to find me a solution.

Should I turn off the Internet Firewall before Service Pack 2 is installed? After it is downloaded, then am I protected or do I have to go back and turn on Internet Firewall? Thanks! I don't quite understand what I should do about the Internet Firewall.
I have just installed the Beta version of Kaspersky 2006. I'm experiencing problems with Internet explorer which cannot open full pages and shows error in script (I think that's what it is). It opens the top of the page but not the content or it just indicates that it cannot find the server or the page.
I recently 'upgraded' the family computer (running XP pro) with SP2.we've had a number of problems with programs no longer working after the upgrade. More specifically, Internet Explorer, Outlook, Norton, and HP Precisionscan Pro 3.1 (to name a few) are causing us grief.Outlook will load, but as soon as you try and view a new message, the program crashes.Internet Explorer will open, but immediately closes before any page can load. (I've installed Firefox in the meantime, so I'm sure it's not the internet connection).
We installed Comcast Highspeed Internet recently and much to our chagrin we've found it to be slower than dial-up.We've de-fragged, we've scanned for viruses we've had a technician out. He insists its not Comcast, it's our computer. We have had a Shellcon Hidden Window End Program show up during shut down (I've been trying to delete MusicMatch all evening) for months, but we'd ignored it till now.
Some days before I installed Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 for Windows XP-SP2. But I didnt feel secure with the changes and decided to uninstall it. But a problem comes.

I just put together a new computer with a ASUS P5P800 motherboard, 1gb Ram, 200gb hard drive. AMI BIOS, Marvell 88E8001 GB LAN controller (built in NIC) and I am unable to access the Internet. Device manager lists the Network adapter and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. It also hangs whenever I try to use dialup. It dials and hangs. Tested modem in Control panel and I can Query the modem fine. I suspect that it has to do with my BIOS settings, but I cannot figure it out. I am running WinXP Pro, SP1.
I have several workstations that can access the internet and xbox and ps3 just fine. but for some reason my main pc can no longer access any website page, but can still browse the LAN and get to the routers homepage, and i can get my dchp from router so we know this is not a physical layer one issue with the nic card or network cable, it seems like its just a http port 80 issue? any suggestions maybe reset my IP stack?I have moved my question to the "Networking section" can you please remove

I have XP Pro fully patched with all service packs. Every time I install ZoneAlarm Pro, Windows Explorer asks for server access to the internet. At this moment, I have Windows Explorer completely blocked from the internet. Why would explorer.exe want internet access?
I have two computers one is running W2000 and the other is running Windows XP Home. They are both hooked up to a Linksys router. Today I cannot access the internet on the XP computer.

I have a computer running XP1 which does not have access to the internet. I received an xp2 disk in the post and tried to update the computer.

Can anyone advise me what to do please - as I can't access my computer at all.
I have a standalone Dell Pentium 4 computer with XP Home SP2. I just recently set up with a password protected account and also a limited account. I want to limit internet access on limited account.
I'm having a problem that I could really use some help with. Two days ago I started having a problem accessing the internet after re-booting my machine. My machine is virus free, I'm sure of that. I thought it was some software that I had installed eg. ProSecurity. I uninstalled all traces of it. Still I have this problem. After re-booting I need to manually re-start my router in order to connect to internet or send/receive mail. I can get an IP but can't ping anyone. In Event Viewer I have these msg's.
1)The IP address lease 192.1 for the Network Card with network address 001151 has been denied by the DHCP server 192.XXX.XXX.X (The DHCP Server sent a DHCPNACK message).
