After an update of Windows (XP), my internet connection hangs up

Earlier this summer after letting one of my netbook computers have a "update" for Windows my connection switched to internet hangs up.  I don't have to troubleshoot it at the time because I got another XP netbook that had not been updated and it continued to work.  Unfortunately the next time I had a connection high speed available let him update this netbook also, and now it crashes on the dial-up connection.  In both cases, I use the same modem.  I connected the modem to a Windows 7 computer and he composed and connects to the internet and works very well.  It's something to do with the Windows updates for XP netbooks.  Is there a known issue with this?

... I am a little concerned about any specific questions about my internet security

You should be concerned!  McAfee (and Norton) applications are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.

Note: The following assumes that none of your McAfee subscriptions (or free trial period) have already expired...

[You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. [If a step said to restart, restart! ]

1. download the McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

3. physically disconnect the computer from the internet and local networks.

4 uninstall McAfee Internet Security via Add/Remove Programs & reboot.

5 IMPORTANT! => Make absolutely certain that the Windows Firewall is enabled (Yes, even if you are not connected to the internet).

6. double-click on the file that you saved in #1 above to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then reboot again.

7 to reconnect your computer to the internet. Do NOTHING else online until you have completed ALL the steps below!

8. do a clean install of Norton Internet Security using your CD.  If you purchased the software directly from McAfee, go to https://home.mcafee.com/Secure/Protected/Login.aspx to connect and download your software.  FOLLOW ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS!

9 IMPORTANT! => Manually and repeatedly updating McAfee Internet Security until you get a "not more than updated" or similar prompt.

10. open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

11 IMPORTANT - DON'T SKIP THIS STEP! Open Internet Explorer (only!) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 of => [ignore all DO NOT APPLY or NOT RECOMMENDED warnings] & run the difficulty in DEFAULT modes and AGGRESSIVE. [1] [2].

12 restart a last time & test.

===================================================
[1] reject (close) "automated convenience store" solve this pop-up that appears when you open the Web page, and then run the difficulty he 50202 (in DEFAULT and modes and AGGRESSIVE) instead. If needed, you can click the difficulty he 50202 & SAVE the download to your desktop and then run it manually (in DEFAULT and modes and AGGRESSIVE).

[2] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates.

  • HP EliteBook 850 G3: HP EliteBook 850 G3: its problems after the update of Windows 10 anniversary

    Hi people!

    After the update of Windows 10 birthday I have problems with my sound card. There are two sound cards listed by Device Manager. The first is "Conexant Audio of ISST" and the second "Intel High Definition Audio". I know not weather it was the case before the update. I just recognized it after the update when I had sound problems.

    In any case, on a sound start works on the other boot it does not work. It seems that Windows chooses the sound card, every time when it starts. Sometimes it takes the bad sound card.

    I tried to uninstall maps its and their resettlement. On the HP site, there is a driver for the Conexant map bot no driver for Intel High Definition Audio card. 10 Windows itself is not find a driver for this sound card. I also tried to reinstall the other drivers, chipset drivers for example. But unfortunately it did not help. I also tried to disable the Intel High Definition Audio, but also without success.

    What else can I try? I don't want to reinstall Windows. There must be a solution without this. Any ideas? Here's a screenshot of my device manager, perhaps it helps:

    If you need more information, please let me know.

    Best regards

    Ty

    I just tried this driver and I still have sound after 6 resets.

  • Satellite P200-P100 - black screen after an update of Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P200-P100 running Windows 7.
    A few weeks ago after an update of Windows 7, my monitor would not show any image, that she lit up, but still no picture. Not even the BIOS it will appoint.

    I fixed it by using the system restore using a different monitor. The same thing happened again today, I must have ran the same update, but this time a system restore does not, any more than to reinstall Win 7.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You mean you don't see anything about internal or external monitor, even switching of the output of the screen by pressing the FN + F5 buttons?
    Hmm. in my opinion has nothing to do with the Windows 7 update

    I mean the update/install of Win 7 OS should not affect the BIOS and you should be able to access the BIOS, even if no operating system is installed on the HARD drive!
    So I guess the question could be linked to the question of the motherboard or some parts placed on the motherboard

    Have you tried that?
    Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter
    Then wait a little (1 hour) and then reconnect the two parts.
    Then try to turn on the device

    If this will not help the RAM modules must be verified.

  • All of a sudden, after a update of firefox, I get "this connection is untrusted" for Facebook, no matter if I use http: or https:, WHY?

    All of a sudden, after a update of firefox, I get "this connection is untrusted" for Facebook, no matter if I use http: or https:, WHY? Here are all the details of the error message:

    This connection is Untrusted

    You asked Firefox to connect safely to facebook.com, but we cannot confirm that your connection is secure.

    Normally, when you try to connect safely, sites will present a reliable identification to prove that you're in the right place. However, the identity of this site cannot be verified.
    What should I do?

    If you normally connect to this site without problems, this error can mean that someone is trying to impersonate the identity of the site, and you should not continue.

    This site uses HTTP Strict Transport Security (HST) to specify that Firefox didn't connect safely. As a result, it is not possible to add an exception for this certificate.

    Facebook.com uses an invalid security certificate.

    The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

    (Also included a screenshot).

  • Cannot connect to internet after daily updates of windows

    I have windows vista Home premium and after installation of updates every day I can not connect to my internet, but if I go back and uninstall updates, I restart and im connect, any thoughts on what to do

    You have Internet Explorer 8 installed.
    Who stopped some people's Internet connection.

    Uninstall updates > change your settings for updates > download updates one once.
    I explained below:

    . Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    See you soon.
