I get some kind of 80's smooth jazz when I call in, and it seems like thats what I get every time. I even got it for a few seconds when I called in this morning.

Sounds like a bad PSU to me.

Does she ever have any problems checking her email on her cheap computer? If not then I'd call it a deal.

Firewall off, services installed, thats why I came here. Like I said, goes to the internet, can access the router firmware, but the computers on the network cannot ping the laptop, and the laptop cannot ping any other computer on the network. Also, when I go to change the computer name, the workgroup box is gray. I have also tried running a winsock fix, installed the latest drivers for both network cards, all settings at default.

I am having an odd problem with a Toshiba laptop. Ethernet or wireless, I can get an IP adress, ping the router, and even go online, but the machine WILL NOT acess the others on the network. It assigns a standard IP adress (192.168.4.115), but when I try to access another computer on the network (\\192.168.4.101), can't connect. When I try to ping the other computer from the laptop, 100% loss, same if I ping the laptop from the desktop.

I will probably never own another Dell, but I own an Inspiron 1100 laptop, and it runs great, no complaints. As for the desktops, once again I'll never own one, but I have no complaints with them either. I run a computer repair shop in the Dallas area, and I have to say that Dell is the easiest machine to work on. The service tag makes it effortless to find all the drivers you need.

I just had to do my daily call to the Microsoft activation center, and I started to wonder, does anybody out there know their hold playlist?

I'm running IE7B2, and today I upgraded my internet from a 4mb line to an 8mb line. When I use Newsbin to download from easynews I get the full 8mb (1.1MB), but when I download with IE I can only get about 300KB. Is there some kind of setting somewhere that is capping my connection through IE?
