    grr too you win xp

    well... i thought that installing win xp on my comp would make my experence a lot better. So i install it, once it is all set up, it wont let me get on the internet. I have no idea why, and the only other computers at my house are a 400mhz and a 222mhz, so... if anyone has had this happen before, please let me know, i have tried everything!

    If you have a cable modem it might be diasbled in the Network Settings, or you didnt tell XP how to find it...
    If you have dialup..Well, your an idiot if you cant set that up.

              Talk about torture...

              Tech support is always a pain, but its your only option unless you want to reformat, like Yoshimaro said...
              One day there will be a really cool sig here. But not right now.

                Ahh...
                Let me tell you a story now,
                I called Cox@home one night to figure out why my cable modem wasnt online, and they told me everything from "Goto dos and type in ipconfig (FUCK YOU THINK?!)" to "Unplug it and plug it back in." I spent hours on the phone with that dumbass who wasnt even nice to me. After I hung up, I tried switching my Ethernet cord with my USB line, and it worked. Apparently my Ethernet cord was cut somewhere and the stupid man didnt even suggest I switch cords.

                    and judgeing by the fact that i am using XP right now, and my computer is the only one that has it, i got the internet to work!

                      this is amazing, considering that XP doesnt HAVE a blue screen of death.
