First of all, I have had my notebook for a year with
absolutely no problems. HP Pavilion ZT3200, Windows XP
Home (OEM), SP2. The Comcast Home Network is using a
LinkSys cable modem/wireless router. I get excellent
reception on my notebook and second PC.
I recently switched from a dial-up ISP to a cable ISP. I
immediately noticed three things:
1. My notebook does not display the entire web site, (my
primary and second PC do display OK). It cuts out the top
of the web page that supposedly runs on Macromedia Flash.
According to Macromedia I have the latest Flash
installed. If any of you are familiar with Comcast the
part of the 'Start Page that doesn't display is the Show
Cover Area'. Comcast says it's not their problem, there
is something on the notebook causing this. Anyone have
any ideas what is going on?
2. Some of the graphics in the Comcast Web email and
Outlook Express do not display. I see a little red 'X'
and a file name next to it, i.e., PICTURE.JPG. I vaguely
remember a setting that fixed that for Outlook Express.
Now the problem is back and Comcast support say they
won't help. This affects the PCs and notebook. Well, can
anyone help me with this?
3. I also noticed when the notebook is on the Home
Network, USB drives (small flash memory devices, 32MB,
128MB etc.) are not recognized. If I shut off the Home
Network Connection, the USB drive is recognized. Looking
into the problem, it states an I/O error is occuring.
Describing the situation it is as follows: I have a 1.1
USB Hub plugged into the USB port on the notebook. Into
the hub I have a Logitech cordless mouse receiver plugged
in. When I plug in a USB flash memory device trying to
move a file from my PC to the notebook, that's when the
USB device is not recognized. It worked fine before
Comcast. To get the USB device recognized I shut off the
Home Networking connection using the networking on/off
swith on the notebook. I tried using a 2.0 USB hub, and
unplugging the Logitech cordless mouse receiver, no
success. Any ideas?
Thank you, any and all help will be appreciated greatly.
