HPoirot36 Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 I've seen this problem before and it very well could be that the network card is bad.If network connection is onboard try a NIC they are cheap enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Gamefreak, what happens when he tries to connect to the internet? Does he get an error message? Does he get an "I'm sorry, IE has encountered some trouble and needs a to shut down and take a happy nappy" box? Does IE open properly but he get a "this page cannot be displayed due to who knows what" page? Does nothing happen?Can he remember the "last thing he did" before he lost his internet? When I fatally broke IE on my PossessedGateway, the last thing we did was fix about a 150 cooties with Spybot. Ended up reformatting it (it was buggy since day one, so it was needed anyways, this was just the motivation to do it)Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

xxkbxx Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Yeah she did get shipped of to prison - something in Florida for scamming old people - slightly related - there is this Dave Chapelle skit where he is a psychic who predicts the future using racial stereotypes and it's hilariousNow this is really off topic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Honda_Boy Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 if it is saying page cannot be displayed, click start>All programs>accessories>Communications>network connections.You ought to be able to just Right click the network connection he is using and click repair. Either that or double click it and click the Support tab and click repair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
