Windows contains a database of drivers, it will be able to look through its own software to see if there is a suitable driver available.

So if i uninstall it, how will i be able to tell it that theres the 1394 connection that needs a driver to it?

you can usually find drivers online, jsut use a floppy from your home computer

Yeah because I dont have the internet working (this is the whole problem) and then this laptop has a floppy drive with the disk so ill put it right in....

No, i dont have internet and there is no floppy drive on this nor do i have a disk for drivers

Go to network connections and right click on the connection that you are trying. go to advanced and make shure nothing is clicked like allow other network users to connect blah blah , then click settings and make shure its on recomended. ( did you try this already? )

There are no things to click on in advance...

I also cant do anything with the firewall

When you go into network connections does it look like this? sounds like when you took out the other program it didn't reset window defaults... you need to be logged in under admin or the orignal persons name? tell me if i'm going the wrong way and if you tried all this junk...

does this thing have a regular ethernet port on it? If so, have you thought about trying it hardwired instead of wireless? That would narrow your issues down a little...

Yeah but the router is 50+ feet away, it was working last night just FINE then once Nortons Antivirus had to get deleted everything has been fagged off and not working right. Takes way too long to turn on and a bunch of other stuff. I really hope i didnt mess up his computer because he would be soooooo pissed off at me.

Duffil · « **Reply #50 on:** Jul 31, 2006, 10:17:11 PM »

what edition of norton did you have? 2005, 2006, etc...and was it regular Antivirus, or like the firewall thingy?

RustyToy · « **Reply #51 on:** Jul 31, 2006, 10:18:33 PM »

2005

Go to Norton site and get the removal tool. It is the only way to completely remove norton properly.

I had 2006 IS and it screwed up every computer it was on including Glen's.
I am no usine Zone Alarm and the computer is much happier faster too.
