No Internet Connection Detected - Computer Not Reading 1394 Net Adapter
Oct 24, 2006
I just put a new 250GB HDD in an Intel D865 GLC motherboard with a 3GB Pentium cpu, but I can't get online! And I installed a new XP Pro.There's a net adapter built into the mobo: 1394 Net Adapter. It says it's connecting, but when I go thru the wizard for either the internet connection or the network connection, it doesn't get read. The little screen moved halfway toward connectivity and then it gives me a new page. I thought I'd work around it by disabling it, and I installed a D-Link NIC. The computer won't even recognize the D-Link! The Device Manager says it's working properly. I called Comcast, twice, and they came to the conclusion after going thru various routines that my computer is not reading the 1394 Net Adapter.
The problem started when I was listening to iTunes, and all of a sudden I lost my internet connection. I checked the Network Connections but it said I was still connected. I ran Spy Sweeper and it detected a "threat" and said it had to restart the computer, which I said "OK" to. Then it froze up, so I just turned the computer off.Now when I turn the computer back on, everything goes through normal, I get to the windows "Welcome" screen and then it goes into Windows, but the only thing that shows is my desktop background. No icons, no start button, no toolbar.I can however, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and run new tasks that way
I can't seem to resolve. I've just reinstalled Windows XP. Everything seems to be fine except for when I try to install my cable which uses the ethernet adapter. Every time I try to install the driver for the ethernet adapter it says this:"The driver was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software""The drivers for this device is not installed"Can someone please help me with this? How can I get this ethernet card to work?
I had the machine into the shop for days. One day I stepped in, and they had something they said was the Internet connection [not the 56k modem] plugged in. I never saw it used, just connected.Thinking about this since all they had was a wire was why can't I do that instead of this 56k modem ?They said something about I can if I use road runner.What are they talking about ?It shows my 1394 connection this moment as active. @ 400 bps.Before I took it to the shop, my LAN and 1394 were both disabled.I'm thinking this 1394 being enabled may be what's slowing my modem down now.If that's true I'd just as soon have the 1394 disabled again.more pix @ http://members.toast.net/cbminfo/index.html
i have 2 PCs in my home: PC1 and PC2 i run Windows XP SP2 on both PC1 is directly connected to the internet and is working fine
PC2 uses a TEW-424UB wireless USB network adapter. It was ok, but it stopped working. I tried unplugging-replugging, but Windows doesn't even detect the device any more when i plug it in NOTHING happens. And when i check for the device in Device Manager, there's a yellow icon and it tells me the device can't start.
I install windows xp, I was missing some drivers so i was able to get what i needed and my computer is running just fine but the wireless network connection is reading in Spanish. I've already gone to the regional settings and made sure it reads English, there is no other part of my computer that i have come across that reads in spanish except this section.
I have a Compaq armada, op is windows xp. My earthnet connetion is at 100mbps. When i surf the web my web page takes about 5 minutes to daownload. I have Ran Spybot s & d, and antivir guard, for viruses and spyware.
My computer is connected through the internet through a router and dsl modem which have worked in the past.During the past two days the internet connection has deteriorated on the XP computer but has stayed the same for the win98 computer eliminating suspicion from the isp.Downloading files for updates, logging into websites etc. is not working unless connected directly to the internet through the modem and sometimes that doesn't even work.I tried running the Norton Anti-Virus scanner but it said it was missing components and when I tried to reinstall the installation failed. I was luckily able to download a free scanner from the internet and ran it on reboot and found 53 various Trojan files infecting to be what i thought useless files. After the scan and deletion the internet still does not work.The problem is i can't repair internet explorer because everything on XP is integrated with the internet and getting updates from the internet is impossible, even system file checker doesn't work without access to the internet.A viable culprit in my mind would be the Norton Internet Security program that comes along with Norton Anti-Virus, which changed internet settings on installation and in the past would not allow the internet to work without it at least on and disabled.I am also missing the .dll files iecont and iecontlc.
i just got a couple viruses, my antivirus isnt working out very well, i just installed norton which doesnt think im connected to the internet so i cant get the new virus deffs. Anyways, i need to get these off my coputer because they load many pop ups as well as starting me at odd start pages. i ran ad-aware, spyware blaster, search and destroy and cwshredder...it remain
For some reason for the last 3 days my internet connection has gotten worse and worse i just reformated and reinstalled windows i have a linksys router and 2 computers hooked up to it and one playstation 2 for online gaming i looked at the setup online at 192.168.1.1 and it says i have 2 clients one at 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.102 mine is at 102 is there a reason it skips over 101 because mine use to be 100 and the other computer 101 why is it now 102?
I had accidentally created a LAN connection, disabled, removed it, and had discovered the Internet Connection Sharing had disappeared, under the advanced tab of "Wireless Internet Connection". I have looked, and looked for a solution to this problem but can not find one. I had found a workaround, tried it, but it just caused my computer to freeze up.
This is weird and perplexes me and everyone I ask: My computer doesn't have anything that seems like a major performance problem, but it does one funny thing. I have SBC Yahoo DSL and use the modem and ethernet card they sent me, as well as a Linksys Ethernet Firewall Router. (I only have one computer; the router is just for security.) What's weird is that every time I boot my computer, there is a better-than 50% chance that there will be no Internet connection. When I look in Control Panel under Network Connections, there is no ethernet card listed except one called "1394 Connection".
I have 3 Windows computers. One of those Windows XP computers looses internet every few minutes. Itdisconnects and then reconnects in seconds. Any ideas?
The Network Setup Wizard tells me that it found disconnected network hardware. My Broadcom 802.11g Network Adapter wireless connection is apparently disconnected. Any ideas on how to rectify this?
My computer runs very slow and I notice that on my computer properties it say I have 37.2BGB and 31.2used with 6.04free. My question is would this cause my computer to run slow.
I have a computer that is linked to a linksys wireless router by a wireless ethernet bridge. My internet was working properly until a couple of weeks ago when it just stopped working. My internet connection says imited or no connectivity and packets are only being sent not recieved. I have connected my computer directly to the modem so it is not going through the linksys hardware at all and there is still no connection. I have checked all of my computers hardware and it says everything is working properly. Also I have made sure all the drivers are updated and working properly.
My computer recently started randomly having this window come up. I took a couple of print screens.There is also one to do with System32. I don't know what it means and why it's popping up! My computer has been running very slow since this has started to happen, and my virus scanner comes up clean. My internet connection also randomly drops.
I use wireless device which connects to my Desktop downstairs,which in turn connects to the router upstairs. So I've been randomly disconnecting when playing games like WoW, and CoH & losing connection on the internet as well. It can't be the router I assume since the laptop upstairs which connects to the same thing never disconnects. I have a D-Link router and a D-link gaming router which connects to the PC. Any help?
my cable is not working properly.Every 15-20 minutes my internet connection is broken even though the modem is online and there is no problem with the cable coming into my house. I have to reset the cable modem and then it works for another 10-20 minutes until the next cut. Ive had this problem before (last time i changed computers) but cant remember how it was resolved. I already talked to my ISP support but these guys are brain damaged or something and cannot even comprehend my problem and all 3 actually concluded that i had somehow contracted some killer virus immediately after connecting my computer and this virus was the root of my problems
I recently reinstalled Windows XP Home on a friends computer, but when I went to create their dialup connection to the internet, I couldn't.I went into the 'Internet Connection Wizard'. Told it that I was connecting directly to the internet. Then I told it I was going to set up the connection manually. But whenever the option comes up to setup a dial-up or broadband connection, the dial-up option is greyed out and unselectable.In device manager, it shows my modem as being fine. It's installed with no conflicts.
I was able to successfully install XP Pro SP2 (32-bit, I believe) and achieve dual-booting with Vista Home Premium (32-bit, I believe).
My problem is my XP OS doesn't connect to the Internet. I tried disconnecting my Linksys network adapter (WMP54G), installing using provided CD in XP, reconnecting the adapter, and booting XP up.It doesn't recognize the adapter still
I have a 3Com 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet Adapter card. XP Pro recognized the card and installed it automatically. The device is working properly. My cable modem Data light constantly blinks when there is a connection. The NIC acknowledges this and blinks with it (just as my other NIC did). I still cannot connect to the internet.
I am good with computers for the most part when it comes to PC troubleshooting, but I have very limited experience with network troubleshooting. I am assuming that there are settings somewhere that I need to manually change. Somebody at school said I had to do something with the registry. I would prefer to stay away from the registry if there is another option available.
Whenever I insert a disc for a game, nothing happens unless I click on the shortcut. This may not sound like much of a problem, but It is if I want to re-install a game. The same thing happens with game demo DVDs. I've tried entering D:setup.exe. into the Run box, as a game instruction manual told me to do, but it comes up with an error message:"D refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disc is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the internet or your network, and then try again. If it still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location."In the manual (which happens to be for Freelancer, but that's not important), it says "type D:setup.exe (where D represents your CD-ROM drive)". I don't know whether D is my cd-rom drive or not, how do I find out? Or can I just click "enable autorun" or something similar somewhere, and will this solve the problem? Also, this may or may not be related, recently, the button on my keyboard which closes the disc tray has stopped working, I now have to manually push the tray in (there's no button on the computer).
I'm having problems with my HP 6122 printer, trying to print a cover for a family history.The cover contains a small b/w photo in center, a caption of one line and framed with a thin blue line, and the whole page framed with the same blue line on the border.I wanted the photo to be printed in "best" as anything less bring moire to the photo.Every time I have tried to do this, the printer does nothing for a minute or so, then proceeds to print the entire page black. What has happened?I can't afford to waste any more black ink, even when I'm watching so I can stop the printing before the whole page is covered.I usually have 2+ inches before I can see it to turn the Printer off.
I am attempting to get a Zonet wireless 802.11g PCI Adapter work in my desktop with little success. I have wireless loptop presently working through a Linksys Router. I copied the internet settings to a jump drive and transfer it to the desktop. The desktop wireless icon showed that it made connection but when i tried to go online using IE IT ALWAYS show web page not found. Is there some other setting in internet Option or elsewhere that is suppose to be change or set for the adapter to get on line. Using the ethernet card in the desktop i can access the internet easily. but the wireless.... this is my sad story
I have windows XP. suddenly it restarts at any time. just reading an email, no obvious reason for it. I tried to do a virus scan but it shut down before it would run very long. I did winsock xp fix and that didn't fix it. What can I do to fix this?
