New installation of Win XP does not recognize an ethernet or wifi Internet connection.

I'm reinstalling an old copy of Windows XP Home edition on a partition on my MacBook Pro and for some reason it gives me the ability to connect to the internet. I can connect with the side the laptop mac, both wireless and via ethernet, but when I boot on Windows, it is not even an option to connect to wireless networks, and he simply ignores the ethernet connection. I tried following a variety of instructions on the web, but no instructions corresponds to what I see on my end. Has anyone else encountered something like this before and know how to fix?

You must install the network drivers for the Windows operating system. Windows doesn't know how to talk to your devices until you do.

  • HP 6120 t BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller

    Hello

    HP 6120 t (vista) BIOS does not recognize the second IDE hard drive connected via IDE-SATA controller. The other SATA disk and the DVD player came with the machine.

    I hooked my old 200 GB Hitachi drive via the controller. I also put the jumbers in the present as a slave. I also took the original WD drive and just connect the IDE hard drive. BIOS do not show any drive at all.

    I would try something possible at this time I have a lot of my data on the old disk.

    Thanks appreciate any suggestion.

    Try to enter the BIOS and I believe under change of Advanced menu of SATA to IDE or Enhanced.

    You need to do when you install Windows XP or you will get a blue screen and it does not start.

    Don't forget chang back when you put it in your drive home hard sata.

  • Win 7 does not recognize the file type for the installation of the theme.

    Original title: download and install desktop theme

    I would like to install the panoramic snow theme but shows like PanoramicSnow.deskthemepack file extension. Win7 does not recognize the file type for the installation due to the addition of the "office" in the extension.  would it be possible to have that corrected please?  Thank you!

    Hello PMacCk,

     
    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.
     
    Basically, the .deskthemepack extension is not recognized by Windows 7 because it is introduced in Windows 8. The new "panoramic" desktop themes all use this format.
     
    For reference, please see:
     
     
    There are still regularly .themepack themes available and those who continue to work in Windows 7 and Windows 8. Please visit the following link to download and install the themes:

  • Satellite C55T: Win 7 does not recognize the card, LAN and WLan

    I have a problem.

    I ve downgraded my Toshiba Satellite A5222 C55T for Windows 7 64 bit and it does not have many pilots.
    Windows does not recognize my network connection and it didn't install my wireless driver.

    Maybe I need a chipset driver, but I found no drivers for windows 7.

    If Windows 7 has not recognized the LAN and WLan card, you have not installed the proper drivers.

    The drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba help page we: [Satellite C55T-A5222 | http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=1200005866]

  • Backup Win XP does not recognize my external hard drive

    Windows XP Backup Wizard does not recognize my external hard drive and does not list it as an option for storing backups.  I suspect a registry problem because the backup wizard previously recognized this drive and saved on it several times before I was running ARO 2012 for cleaning the registry errors.  I can always open the player in windows Explorer and see the files it contains, but Explorer Windows XP now lists the drive as an "expansion disc" instead of a 'removable disk '.  When I right click in windows Explorer and open 'properties' for this drive, it shows it as a 'local disk' instead of a 'removable disk '.  The drive is ok when I click the button 'Remove hardware safely', and it reports "safe to remove hardware" after I click on "USB storage device - Drive (J :). ».  Help!

    Who did.  Thank you!  Now... I used Aero2012 to clean up the errors in my registry that's because my computer is desperately slow, especially when you start (8-10 minutes) and also with internet explore (move cursor to previous typos when you compose a new e-mail message).  Is there a safe way for me to speed up my computer?

  • My computer does not recognize that I have two monitors connected.

    I have a VGA splitter cable, but even after I used the cord to connect two cords vga to a port, the computer is only noted one of the monitors. So when I go into settings to try to get them to display both, or to identify, the computer notice only a single monitor. So the problem is that my computer does not recognize that there are two put monitors in place.

    Cable splitter separates the single signal only. The computer only sees it as an output. You would need a different video card use the two forms as separate monitors instead of simply split the signal.
