SOURCE: Once windows vista updated itself, now my computer freezes and doesn't want to even boot up...anything I can do to fix this?

Remove the ram memory one at a time and power on each time, if this fixes the problem you have a bad stick, if this fails! restore computer back to a earlier stage before this update occured.

SOURCE: Unable to obtain valid IP config

Unplug power to ISP modem, till you see it reboot. Test with a cable to establish you can connect directly with ISP modem. If OK, reconnect with wireless modem. You will have to switch between wireless and regular network adapter on laptop for this test.

Use these instructions to test and see IP's.Go to Start > Search > Type cmd and hit enter key.
In Command Shell:


Type ipconfig /all These are your IP settings.
Type ipconfig /release To clear IP settings.
Type ipconfig /renew For new IP settings.

You will need to check NIC drivers in Device Manager if problem persists.

My Sony bravia tv keeps losing connection to the Media server (computer) I can reconnect but it keeps happening randomly daily Please help

Hi there.
I assume that you are connecting wirelessly. The most common problem is that the TV is at the outermost range of the wireless signal from your router/AP. try moving the router/AP closer to the TV. However I would recommend that you use a lan cable rather as this is a more reliable connection. You will also need to check your network settings. To keep the network connection more stable make sure both the TV and media server have static IPs, especially the server.

Dlink dsm 330 keeps losing contact with pc

There are a few things thatcan cause you to lose wireless connection with your wireless router.1. Weak signal strength,check the signal strength on your wireless card. If it is weak move thewireless router away from brick or concrete walls and if possible locatethe wireless router higher up.2. Have you secured yourwireless router from people near your from unauthorized access? i.e. change thedefault password, setup encryption use WPA2 or WPA, change the default SSID,and turn off SSID broadcast, and for added protection, enable MAC addressfiltering which allows only the MAC address/es of your wireless card/s toconnect to your wireless router.3. You could be gettinginterference from electrical sources such as air conditioners, arc welders,washing machines etc. If so, the power supply to the wireless routers andcomputers etc should be connected to a surge protection power board, betterstill connect your computer equipment to an UPS (Uninterrupted PowerSupply). 4. Check the channels ofthe wireless routers and access points in your area and change the broadcastchannel on your wireless router to an unused channel or one that is currentlyused but has the weakest signal strength. This will minimize interferencewith your wireless router from other wireless routers and accesspoints in your area.

I keep losing signal or internet connection on my laptop but desktop is still connected what can I do I continuously rest the router but keep losing it, Also what is the security button for on the router

Do you have something like a cordless phone or baby monitor near the router or laptop? These can cause interference with the wireless signal and cause dropped connections.

The security button is for if you have a compatible wireless card, you can get it to 'automatically' configure the wireless settings by pushing this button on the wireless router, and then press the button on the wireless client... they exchange the wireless keys, etc and establish a connection without having to configure it in Windows.

If you are interested in further info about the router, you can find the use manual here:

My N1 vison keep losing on wireless connection when i used 2-3 wireless devices in same time. My connection is wired to my Desktop PC & wirelessly to 1 laptop, 1 iPhone and newly 1 iPad. I noticed that...

If you have a 3G phone in the house, It operates at the same frequency and is a nono.

If not I would suggest you completley rest modem and re-enter U/N, P/W etc and set up secure network also. If still a problem, maybe faulty modem.

My belking keeps losing connection during games?

If your wireless you probably need to change broadcast channels on the router ( to the last channel) if its hard wired, you probably need to port forward the ip address for the Xbox

Loses network connection or says low connectivity.

hmmm... need to see if this is from the router end or the problem is your laptop. phone company replaced the router-- did they stick around long enough to see you connect to it with your laptop?

how long has the connection worked properly between the wireless laptop and your basement router?

can you visit a starbucks or whatnot to see if you can surf with your latop (i.e. it's not your laptop wireless card)

can you get a friend to come over to try your router with their wireless laptop?

what if you stay just in teh basement -- does the connection drop at all?
