ok to get some idea of why t'internet is broked, we need some info...
1. What make is your wireless router? 2. on your computer, if you click start>run>type 'cmd' and press ok, then in the black screen type 'ipconfig' what is your IP address listed as? 3. Are you using any 3rd party programs to handle wirless e.g. netgear wireless utility or is it done through windows? From this we can tell whether the computer is actually connecting to the wireless router.... 4. click start>control panel>network connections>look for network connections* and open it (if you can't see it, select 'switch to classic view' on the left first. Next right-click on your wireless network adapter and select properties, then the wireless networks tab. Is your connection in the preferred connections list? if so click on it and select properties... what is the network authentication and data encryption set to? 5. Because that was a nerdy post, I'll finish on a bad joke.. how do you get pikachu on a bus?.......................................................... you poke-him-on (apologies) ta, Monkey -------------------- |

Sweet, i'll do that now XD
Edit: OMG I HATE COMPUTERS. Ok - I went onto the steam website, clicked the download button. it asked me to save a file (steaminstal.msi) I saved it on to my desktop. After opening it via this shortcut, it told be 'another version of thsi product is already installed' and that it cant install but if i delete the existing version, I will be able to install. I did a quick search of my compuet from an already installed steam, and found nothing but the .msi files. Sooooo i went to add/remove programs, and found Steam. I clicked remove... buuuuuuut it says the feature i am trying to remove is on a CD-ROM that is not avalable. But i used no CD at any point =P Then, I tried to install L4D straight from the CD, but after the screen loads (with 'install' 'tech. support' and 'exit') and I click install... nothing happens!! It makes a noise (like the cd drive opening and closing) but nothing else... Why do the gaming gods hate me sooo! -------------------- My avatar is me, in a school project ('The Ringlett') |
