I just reformatted my computer and now my internet is not working… I am on my moms computer trying to find out how to fix this but I can’t seem to find anything.
when I try to get on ie it says: Internet Explorer can not open the search page.
and then res://c:\windows\system\SHDOCLC.DLL/dnserror.htm
if it helps I ran cmd and did ipconfig but all I get is Windows IP Configuration
then its just blank, it doesn’t even show any ip addresses anymore…
I find sometimes the DSL modems that you get from citytel stop functioning. This sounds stupid, but sometimes turning your DSL modem off and on will re-set it.
YOU need to install the network card drivers now, i bet if you looked in the yellow question mark or exclamation mark you will see a few things that need to be installed.
Your computer (or motherboard-CPU upgrade if you got that done) came with a motherboard driver CD. Find it and open the side of your tower. Tape it on the bottom so you never lose it.
Almost everything in the last couple years comes with onboard sound-video-NIC.
If you ever go to Vista, this is really important. You’ll get “local access only” until you have exactly the right driver for your NIC. Windows often guesses, and Windows Update’s whacked more drivers than I can count.
