• Problems with wireless USB adapter. Icon missing "Wireless network connection".

  I recently got a laptop HD malfunction cause me to start my PC from 2004. I bought a Belkin N150 Wireless USB adapter to connect to the internet connectivity. During the installation, I do not get a "Wireless network connection" icon I am running Windows XP SP3. I installed the same USB adapter on a computer running Windows XP SP2 and it works fine. I plugged it in my desktop PC and it just doesn't work! Even with my router disconnected I should still be able to see other networks WiFi available in the range (I live in a community of apartment) as he worked on the other computer it elsewhere too. I double checked the drivers, reboot the cable modem, so that appropriate services were activated and still no dice. I have read forums and I'm almost at the point of paying MS for technical support services, but it's really just my last step before I shell out money for professional help. Notice to lovers? =)

  Hello

  Well, at this point, you should make an executive decision.

  If you think that someone will take just guilt because it's comfortable, it is not going to happen.

  If a new card that is known to work does not work, then you can try to re - install Windows.

  One of the differences between computer enthusiasts and regular users is the availability of the material. I have a set of wireless router, network cards, etc. that are known to be good.

  The components are used for the sole purpose of trying them temporarily on the troubled computers to rule out hardware problems.

• The "Wireless networks" tab is missing

  I'm trying to troublshoot a wireless connection:

  Windows Wireless Auto Configuration is enabled and running, but the "Wireless networks" tab is missing from the wireless network connection properties window.

  Any ideas on how to restore this tab?

  The radio works and shows a TX/RX connection but the router will not assign an IP address.

  Windows XP SP3 laptop ThinkPad T30.

  I had the same problem - reinstalled windows, updated with service pack 3 and wireless tab was not visible. I couldn't view wireless networks. WZC has been launched and running. I tried several suggestions on different threads, but none seemed to help.

  Finally, this helped:

  Click on "View available networks" and then 'change advanced settings '.

  Under "Wireless network connection properties", click the "Advanced" tab

  At the bottom of the Advanced window, I had a link to the installation network connections (I am not able to find it now - so don't know the exact name) and click on it. He took me through a series of steps where I clicked next/ok. Finally, after finishing, the wireless networks tab is appeared! I don't know why!

  Can you tell me why this should be?   And I can do to stop what is happening?  It is VERY frustrating!

  HI Johnboy1935,

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2. do you have security software installed on the computer?

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

• Showing in the form of folder icon and cannot access network drive icon

  Hi team,

  The network drive that I drew in my computer using my profile isn't allowing me to access.

  The network drive icon shows as a folder icon and it says access denied even if I have the permissions to access the file on the server.

  The server we use is the exchange Server 2003.

  But I am able to access the files inside the drive using the Option RUN as well as Address bar in my computer.

  And I am able to access the folder on the server without any problem.

  The operating system I use is Windows XP.

  But it worked for someone else, when I deleted a file named autorun.inf in the folder of the shared drive on the server!

  Could you please tell me what is autorun.inf and he really causes this problem in the drive on the server or is there any other reason.

  Thanks in advance for the help.

  Hi Rani Jhansi,

  Your Windows XP question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows Server forum.

• Local network connection icon disappeared. Is it possible to add back?

  Local network connection icon disappeared.  Is it possible to add back?

   

   

  Close all the windows that you have open. Restart the computer.
  Please use the following tutorial:
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/106787-notification-area-system-icons.html

  The tutorial has 4 methods.

  Method is a general method which, unfortunately, rarely works because the box, you need to check is usually grayed out (unclickable).

  Two method is only for Vista Ultimate and Enterprise.

  Three method applies to all versions of Vista.

  Use the Reg file download. It is simple and easy.

  * Do
  sure that you restart the computer to complete the
  procedures.
  
  Four method deals with editing the registry. If you are not comfortable doing this. Please do not. Three method is the best way to go.

• Network notification icon has stopped working

  Network notification icon no longer changes when the connection has been established.

  Hi Rob

  Sorry about the lack of response in these few days, but I had a bad cold.  However, there are some good news to report.  I don't have the chance to try the suggestions you made, but this morning I received an update from my security software Norton 360 and after installing this update and run some scans (including cleaning registry) in order to ensure that all seemed to agree, my network notification icon now works again!

  If the problem has been solved somehow, and I may never know the real cause.  I hope I never have to try to find out again!

  Many thanks for your help anyway.

• "Globe / icon" mysteriously takes the place of internet shortcut icons.

  I guess this question is an ongoing thing with other users of IE 8.  Whenever I have create a shortcut on my desktop from a Web site, either more personal websites shortcut icon or I get that I guess being an icon by default, for example a white dog-eared page with an 'E' blue in the Center.  Which should, however, after a short time or even a day or two, the icon changes in this 'blue and green globe' or an icon of the "Earth-like" of the same color or nature.

  In terms laymans, how can it be corrected, get rid of the blue and green globe icon, without having to personally go to change the files in the operating system of my computer.  I'm not and I guess a great many other users, are not a computer expert or a technician and we have enough trouble with this problem of "icon" without adding to our grief by changing orders that we do not know how to correct if something goes wrong.  Microsoft offers a download or maybe a fix for the problem of this icon of switching for those of us who are not so clever programming or to modify these commands?

  Loving Windows 7, but do not love shortcut icons that have a spirit that is clean!

  This problem occurs only on internet icons, although when you click it, you get the web page you wanted the shortcut to bring up, it's just that 'gawd awful' blue and green globe of the Earth that is the issue.

  In the meantime, I found a solution much simpler which does not require a lot of time and patience.  For those who still have the same problem that I once had, read on...

  • Right-click on the offending icon (globe blue and green, etc.)
  • When the window opens click on "Properties".
  • Left click on "change icon".
  • In the upper right corner of the left window click 'Browse '.
  • Scroll down until you see "url.dll.
  • Left click twice on "url.dll," then...
  • Left click on 'Apply' and then left click on 'OK' in the next or the next window and you should have all familiar white dog-eared page with the 'E' blue in the Center where the times "awful gawd" globe once.  I took care of all my blue and geen 'globe icons' last night (27/07/10) and they have yet to return.  Simple, clean and... effective now.

  Thanks for the timely response if I received on this post, it is appreciated. : o).
