Yet more problems! PC is running fine but while it wasn't working we got a new isp. Connected my Netbook, my mothers netbook and my 360 with ease, but the pc wont connect and either has the red X over the connection icon or is always acquiring network address.
I'm using a belkin 802.11g wireless adapter btw.
Does it connect by ethernet? If it does, you can concentrate just on the wireless card. I'd start first by uninstalling it completely from the device manager. Then reinstall it with the latest "downloaded" driver. Anything that came with it on a disk is pretty much worthless except if it needs proprietary software to work. Even still, that is probably outdated as well. Is the adapter a card or USB device? Either way, try moving it to a different slot/connector.
I'll procrastinate tomorrow.
Nope, everything in our house runs wireless. The adapter is a card.
Also, an ipconfig shows dnssuffix default gateway as blank and my ip and subnet mask as 0.0.0.0 on my desktop whereas my netbook;
dns: 520b.com
ip:192.168.1.4
subnet:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.1.1
Don't know if this will help.
Surprisingly I actually have two of the sticks that fitted now running and now have 1gb ram
I'll procrastinate tomorrow.
An hour of copying settings to TCIP and the like I somehow managed to get it back up and working! Thanks for all the help!
