Bit of a noob here. this is killing me, been what 2 months of now?? am really close to dumping the lot and throwing myself of the fucking cliff. tried to buy a cpu fan as mine has died, but 3 pc shops i have been in say i need to rebuy the whole processor?? is that right? i dont trust shop people. got a few games on the comp, but obvoisly playing offline. can anyone PLZ help or suggest anything. plz plz. wizid was a star, and the card works, but when i got online er offline was it a page in memoery? the webpage was sort of screwed, and i got a message that the card may have windows issues? why is that? what else is there? i run xp home. as cant afford win 7. cheers for input peeps.

Just post what socket it is and I will send one out to you. If you have the disk for the mother board you could try to reinstall the Ethernet driver. If you do not try to Google the mother board on you wife's laptop and download it to a flash drive or just post what you have here and we can find that for you.

If that vista laptop was cleaner and defragged and such...it would be noticeably faster than that...I just reformatted two of them...with one gig of ram. Not the fastest, but not terribly slow either. You have alot of bs startup? Also if you run AVG sometimes it scans the computer everyday (which isnt really necessary). You should be able to get that ethernet working with the proper driver though like wizid said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
