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,

working out waht your sound card is - what make is your computer, was it built by your dad with seperate parts or is it a prebuilt one by like dell or hp? if so, does it have a model number, like dell xps 700 or whatnot? should say on a sticker on the case someplace

if not, check the make of your mobo by taking of the side panel and see what company logos are there....


as for activating windows, there are ways, but you should have 30days ish so ill let monkey sort you out on that one
