I used to be able to connect with a wired connection just fine to my college internet (via an ethernet jack in a box on the wall), but when I try to do so now, I see that the network cable is unplugged according to the network connections list, even though both the connection to my laptop and to...

I have an Alienware 18. Today tried updated to windows 8.1, it failed on the first try, stopping at 83% after rebooting and almost finishing the installation. I retried installing, it did the same thing, however, this time (i accepted my defeat) when signing back in, my wifi was not recognized...

Been getting these weird blue screen crashes when playing bf4. About a month ago I thought it was Corsair Vengeance 2000 because it would only happen while using it but I have been playing with my desktop speakers using onboard audio. I have made sure my drivers are up to date, including my...

Need some help with this recent BSOD that I have been having since I upgraded to 8.1 from 8. I have a Lenovo G500 laptop. This BSOD seems to be easily duplicated when I try to modify settings under the Advanced tab of my wireless card adapter, a Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter. This is true...

Hi I am receiving an error that "Ethernet" doesn't have a valid IP configuration. I have followed the windows network diagnostics and still nothing. Any help would be great.

I've got an intermittent problem with BSOD on my W8 machine. The only thing I've noticed is sometimes it happens when I hit "disconnect" on cisco's anyconnect client. I am running the latest version of that client but wonder if it would be related to the driver for that virtual ethernet adapter...

So, last week my wifi adapter card started fizzling out. I made due by turning on my old Vista laptop and having it share it's internet via Ethernet to my main Win 7 desktop (which, sad to say, is superior to the card). So far, the only problem I have was having multiple FTP connections not...

I've commenced with doing a clean installation of Windows 7, and am having problems with some of the basics, because I have misplaced the motherboard disc, and had to download the files individually from the manufacturer's website. The most important at the moment is the driver for the...

I have a D-Link router DIR-615/RE rated at 802l11b/g/n, a Motorola SB6121 Surfboard cable modem. Right now I have my Tivo DVR connected to my router using Ethernet cabling so the DVR and Tivo can talk to one another. I have my laptop computer connected to the Internet using WiFi through the...
