I installed Windows XP but I can't access the internet. I checked the IPconfig and it is empty. The indicator light on the adapter is on green. Of course, the drivers are missing but whom?
Go to your computer manufacturer's support web site
and search for the Windows XP drivers for your specific computer or motherboard model number.
If there are Windows XP drivers, then download to a folder on your hard drive and burn it to a CD/DVD.
Then, after installing XP install all device drivers, starting with the card mother/chipset drivers.
LAN, Audio, USB, SATA, etc, and so on.
Note: If there is no XP driver listed, then your computer is not compatible Windows XP.
List of computer manufacturer support sites:
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/help/contact-support/computer-manufacturers
If you have an Intel motherboard, you can try the Intel driver update utility: http://www.intel.com/support/detect.htm?iid=dc_iduu
Graphics/video drivers:
Check the download site of the manufacture of the graphics card for the newer Windows XP drivers for your card.
ATI: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx
NVIDIA: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index5.aspx?lang=en-us
========================= IpConfig ===========================
Open a command prompt window and type these two commands in the following
order:
(1) ipconfig/release
(2) ipconfig / renew

Computer shows as connected... but we can not access the internet.
Original title: but alas... internet no.
Recently, we had this problem where our shows as connected pc... but we can not access the internet. What I've been able to solve, is that somehow my IP settings change.
I'm going to "Obtain an IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically", but of course... when the problem occurs again I find that my "Obtain DNS server automatically an address" has been changed to "use the following DNS server address".
What is causing my computer to change my settings?
I think you're DIY too. Normally, your computer and your wireless router assign dynamic IP addresses, and they change periodically - that is part of the security design.
In your case, the DNS server is the router.
Most of the time what you describe is your computer is able to find a wireless router but the router doesn't send an IP (its normal function).
This is usually:
- Your Internet service provider is down or your connection to it is broken. If this is the case there is nothing you can do about it.
- Your computer network security key does not match the one in the router.
1 reset the modem & router. Follow these instructions precisely: http://canadiantech.info/?page_id=136
2. If that does not resolve the problem, you must remove this network from your list of networks to manage Windows 7. Then try to connect again using the network key, you know.
3. If this does not work, you will need to do a factory reset on the router and re - install the router according to the router set up instructions.
4. If after all the above does not correct the problem, you must replace your router.

original title: Windows7 Professional Upgrade
I just bought a new computer running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium with an upgrade to windows 7 Pro. I have the PIN # for the upgrade, but I can't get the site to come www.windows7.com/get key. How to pass?
If your PIN does not work, try the following:
1. check that the PIN has been entered correctly. PIN code is not case sensitive and is alpha-numeric.
2. make sure that the PIN has not already been used to obtain a product key. A PIN can be used only once to get a product key. If the PIN has been used, you can connect to your account with your Windows Live ID (if you have it when the PIN has been entered) to access your product key or you can check your email for the confirmation e-mail, that you have received when the PIN has been consumed to access your product key.

Can someone help me understand why I can only access the video editor after you download photoshop elements 13
It seems that you downloaded Premiere Elements rather than Photoshop Elements.
Premiere Elements video editing =
Photoshop Elements = editing still images
Download Photoshop Elements from here
https://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop-elements/KB/Photoshop-elements-10-11-downloads.html
If you received a serial number starting with 1057 then that is for Photoshop Elements. If the serial number starts with 1143, then it's a number of Premiere Elements.

There is no way to uninstall Defender in Vista.
It is part of the Vista operating system.

original title: Wireless router problems
My Belkin router has stopped working the other day, so I tried the usual stuff (turning on an etc) in the end rang Belkin and after about an hour the router started working again, but would go only on the iiNet connection site! Go figure, not even with them. The woman to the Belkin told me to ring my ISP I did, and they got me online, however, my printer, the laptop and the iPhone is no longer will connect wireless. They were all working perfectly before the router dropped out.
I went through all the procedures that several times. Uninstalled and reinstalled the printer and the router... still does not work.
The printer can not just to find the wireless network. The test report said that everything went except the SSID, which has been a FAILURE. How can this be when I haven't changed the
SSID?
I've updated as well.
Hoping really frustrated, can someone help!
Thanks in advance!Hello
