  • Cannot connect to Windows Vista due to password problem

    I have a Dell XPS computer laptop model PP28L and run Vista Home Premium. When I bought the computer I bought in a pawn shop. Of course it was sold with no records at all. No recovery or restore of Windows disks. I have a valid Microsoft "proof of License'for my Vista Home Premium. Should I be reinstall Windows and if yes how I'd get the disks.

    * original title - cannot connect on Windows Vista Home Premium because someone changed my password, deleted my ID of the administrator and the guest connection. I am in the *.

    Your only option is to do a clean install of Vista.  There is no free, download of the disk.  Contact the manufacturer of the computer and they may be willing to sell you a set of recovery disks to reinstall the system (but you will need 23 digit product key to activate it in all probability even if sometimes it is not necessary when it is made with recovery on the same computer discs).

    Here is Microsoft's policy on software lost: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326246 you can see is not much help.

    If you can borrow an installation disk of Vista genuine of the same size of the bit of ANYONE, you can use that with your product key to re - install the system and start over (you get a new administrator account and set your own password for him - or to leave empty that you choose).

    I hope this helps.

    Hello

    References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

    You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. Safe Mode ADMINISTRATOR account has no password by default (unless someone has changed the password so it should be available).

    Some programs such as the Google Updater (if you added the toolbar Google, Chrome or Google Earth) has been known to cause this problem.

  • Settings need to connect a second desktop computer using a NetGear wireless adapter.

    Original title: wireless settings

    I need the settings to connect a second desktop computer using a NetGear wireless adapter.

    The Belkin router work a lot using my Tablet and streaming movies but I can't understand

    the settings on the second PC.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    "Settings", you need are the SSID (network name) and the encryption key (password).

    Unless you have configured the router to 'hide' the SSID (generally a bad idea), you will see in the list of available wireless networks.  Then, the only thing you need is the encryption key.

    If you do not write your encryption key, you can find it by logging into your router configuration utility.

    If you have a computer running Windows can now connect to the router, open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK) and type "ipconfig" (without the quotes) and press ENTER.  Take note of the 'Default gateway' address.  It is the IP address of the router.

    The default IP for Belkin routers is 192.168.2.1.

    On a computer that is already connected to the router, open a browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox) and enter the IP address of the router (the gateway by default, you noted above or 192.168.2.1).  If you do not have a computer that is connected to the wireless router, you will need to temporarily connect a computer to the router by an Ethernet cable.

    Connect to the router configuration utility.  If prompted for a password and you don't remember, you need to reset the router to its factory default.  Return ticket for additional instructions.

    Once logged in, click on "Security" under "wireless" in the menu.  At this point, you should see a page that shows your password.  Write it down and exit the router configuration utility without making any changes.

    For more help, post back with the model of your Belkin router and also mention if you have any Windows computer that can connect to the router (and if yes, what version of Windows they use).

  • cannot connect to windows the first time I try to use the password. Enter it in the second time and it gives me access

    I am using windows 7 Home premium 64-bit on an HP desktop with intel 3.4 GHz processor.  About two weeks ago, I noticed that when I tried to connect to windows by entering the user password, the system would have indicated the incorrect password.  Then I must enter exactly the same password again once, he would give me access.  A few days later, I noticed that every time I tried to connect to a Web site that requires a user ID, the cursor would move in through all the ID I used on this site previously.  Can someone help me fix this problem?

  • Cannot connect to Windows 7 PC via Wi Fi

    I have a Stor.E TV + 2 TB I've tried everything but can't connect to PC Windows 7.
    However, it will connect to a Windows XP OK computer.
    Someone at - it solution

    I found that connecting to Windows 7 with WiFi or other is a business blindly. The reason is not clear, but probably because the Toshiba is not properly designed to be discovered by Windows 7. Even computers Windows XP need some software utilities installed to be discovered by Win 7. Often the Toshiba appears at the bottom of the page of the network as a disc that is present but cannot be discovered. Sometimes it will appear under network locations if you pass the Toshiba and the new to reset the IP address. In addition to the usual file sharing settings, the drive must be mapped under 'computer '. Very often when the player does not appear under the 'Network' locations, double click the disc 'Computer' open records even if it does not appear in the sites 'network '. Don't ask me why. I worked around this and other issues such as the inability to copy large files, without interface specified Samba, etc, etc.. I installed the updated software, but other issues have slipped now that I've never had before like files FLAC freeze the player and does not properly (noise spikes). In truth, unfortunately, is a * finish without any support, and should not be on the market. I can't even sell it because it wouldn't be ethical it land on a poor unsuspecting, but hours of frustration to work around these problems, just to be able to use it, is counterproductive. I'll be more careful next time in choosing a provider.
