    My bf just reinstalled XP after having Vista on his PC and he is having difficulties connecting to his network and the internet. He has tried everything under the sun. Any suggestions as to how the problem could be fixed??

    One sec, I'm a mind reader. I can figure out what you're asking!










    ...kay, maybe I'm lying -- sorry, could you be more specific? :p

    It doesn't matter now. He realised he hadn't installed the CD which came with his motherboard... Ze Doofus -.-

    Drivers....its always the drivers. Oh and ask him if he installed the chipset drivers first. If not he might run into some weird issues out of nowhere...

    And do make sure he has the right drivers. Pray to god he doesn't need the RealTek sound drivers, as I can't find the proper fucking drivers anywhere! At least 5 BSODs a day. I was better off in Vista. *headdesk*
