  • Windows Vista tells me that I have a wireless connection. However, the internet does not work. How can I fix it?

    The small globe appears telling me that I have a connection and bars 1 to 3 (of 5) but I can't load the internet or online games. I just installed a game called Rohan online. Se that screwed up my connection? Also, I use AVG as my virus protection. I see that it blocks the packets, but even when I turn it off temporarily can't connect to the internet.

  • I can't change anything in the control panel. My computer says I may have not sufficient permissions to access the item.

    We have tried everything we can think of changing the time in our computer.  Whenever we click on the small box in the lower right corner, he says - "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not permissions to access you the item.  In addition, we are unable to add or remove programs or making changes through the control panel.  Help

    All the problems you describe are problems that could occur if the user that you are connected without administrator privileges.  The quick check of administrator privileges must right click on the button 'start '.  If "Open All Users" is one of the choices that appear, then you have administrator privilege.  Otherwise, you must connect to your machine like the built-in 'administrator' or a user in the group "Administrators".

    Assuming that you have administrator privileges, things get more complicated.  User rights can be granted or denied to any user - even administrators - by group policy.  If you are an administrator and you have XP Pro, then you might be able to check or change the user rights by using the Group Policy Editor (from-> Run-> "gpedit.msc").  Search in the:

    Computer configuration-> Windows settings-> security settings-> local policies-> user rights

    path.  One of these user rights is "Change the System Time".  If your XP Pro machine was never part of a domain, I would consider also running a program anti-malware on your system.

    If you have XP Home Edition, you don't have the Group Policy Editor.  You will need to check / adjust / modify your user rights by using the command line program "NTRights" provided with the Resource Kit.  Problems like that with XP Home would raise my suspicions that you have a malware infestation.

  • Tecra M5: Can not access the internet pages, but can ping in cmd.exe

    Hi all, this is confusing to me.

    I've been happily connected to my WLAN for more than a year without any problems. I recently updated my drivers for the following on my Tecra M5:

    -Intel Pro Wireless adapt
    -Drivers audio Sigmatel
    -nVidia graphics card

    Now, after facilities, everything was fine. However, a few days later, I turned on the laptop and went to IE7 and it cannot display the web page (my homepage is www.google.co.uk). I called my ISP to help and they reported problems on the service, and they gave me the www.google.co.uk ip address I got a response of in cmd.exe. It seems that I can get out on the internet but I can't access the Web pages - it could be a DNS issue?

    I have disabled my A - V and firewall and tried but get the same question. I also tried to restore the PC back more than a month and it did not help either. I'd appreciate any help that anyone can give.

    I also plugged the laptop directly into the router using an ethernet cable, so it's not only a wireless issue either.

    I have installed any other software at all at the moment and the only other thing that got my attention, it's that, in the field of restoration, there a lot of system restore points, which I wasn't expecting to see in the last month. But it could be a Kipper.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    According to your message, you are not able to connect to internet via LAN and WLan. Is this good?

    Well, in your case I would first check the router settings and re still.
    In addition, you must reset the router.

    Usually, the router assigns the IP address, and therefore you would just plug the laptop LAN cable and then should be able to connect to the internet.
    Please note that the TCP/IP protocol settings must be set to automatic.

    Check everything first!

  • Cannot access the internet with bridged network - Windows 7 64 bit host, XPSP3 comments

    I use VMPlayer v3.0.1 build-227600 on a PC under Windows 7 64-bit. My guest operating system is Windows XP Professional w/SP3.

    I read all the messages on the use of NAT for the guest operating system can access the internet. But when I do that my guest is unable to access my Oracle server on my network. If I use Bridged my guest can access my Oracle server, but it cannot access the internet! How can I fix it? Shouldn't VMPlayer allow the guest OS to access the network and the internet? I need these two features.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    the simplest solution would be to add a second NIC to your comments, so that you can have bridged and NAT at the same time

  • Is the function of automatic update of Windows found in the use of control panel of your compensation for the use of the Internet from my ISP?

    Original title: Windows updates

    Is the function of automatic update of Windows found in the use of control panel of your compensation for the use of the Internet from my ISP? If so, how? In addition, how to hide an update, I don't want to? For example, I use (and I'm happy with) Windows Internet Explorer (v7), but receive reminders to update update to Internet Explorer v9, which I don't want.

    Is there a way to prevent Windows Update for sending this reminder in the future?

    Hide and Yes will use you PSI data usage. It depends on how much the updates install you, on the amount of data it uses

    Can someone help me? I am trying to download iMovie which normally should be free with other Apple applications, but for full reason he always says that I have to pay for it. And I Shen a brand-new iPhone updated to IOS 9 5s. Can someone give me advice on what to do?

    iMovie and iLife and iworks Apps are free with the purchase of a new device.

    Since Apple is no longer selling the iPhone 5 s, she cannot be considered more for free apps.

    However, just to be safe, disconnect you from the iTunes and App Stores-> Apple ID in the settings on the new iPhone 5 s, then reset the iPhone in now the home and power buttons together for 10 to 15 seconds. Let the iPhone reboot and then sign in with your Apple ID in iTunes and the App Store and try to get the Apps again.
