On or about the night of 7/14/09, when I went to log off my PC I had a
message that I needed to restart for an update. I shut down my PC and the
next day when I went to get back on the internet I found that I lost my
Ethernet connection on my modem. Upon checking I found that I had also lost
my indicating lights on my LAN socket. Verizon checked out their end and all
checked good. Hooked up my old PC and all was fine. Looked at my network
connections and had the big red X saying network connection unplugged, it
wasn't. Went thru device manager net adapters showed no problems, deleted and
reinstalled, no change. Had a PC tech check it out $ and no change. Who would
have thought... He suggested getting a new modem and hooking up thru a DSL
port but don't have many left. And my graphics card takes up to many slots to
get a good PCI slot. Tried a Gigbyte net adapter no luck software couldn't
see card in the only PCI slot I have left. Everything installed fine when I
tried it on my old PC. Yes my disc drive is fine, checked that too. Sure hope
you guys can help. thanks much Bill
