Hello!
I don't think I'm the most computer savvy person, but I
do have an understanding to what goes on...I think.
Recently, the internet in my sorority decided to suddenly
go out. Another girl in the house and I have started to
unravel the problem, and have started to regain internet
in most the rooms. What is most perplexing to me - and
Dell associates - is why the internet in my room will
work for my roommate (who is hooked up thru my router),
but not for me. We think it's a virus, but McAfee isn't
identifying anything and I can't update DAT files if I
can't open the browser - oh, I did forget to mention that
my computer KNOWS it is hooked up, it's receiving and
sending information but somehow not getting a signal. We
pinged the IP address of my netcard...but nothing, not
even a System Restore to as early as Feb 8, 2004 has done
anything.
So, at this point, unless anyone has a suggestion, I
think (and I may be wrong) that formatting the c-drive
would be the best option and to reinstall Windows XP Pro.
Any ideas?! Help?!
Thanks
