open up your browser and select the little arrow next to tools, make sure Work Offline is unchecked.


Also does Windows Updates work for you?

You said you have no problems pinging so there is something going out, meaning the adapter does communicate

As a last resort you can try uninstalling the adapter from the device manager and reboot and let it refind it, maybe a freshset of drivers will help.

Another thing to try is to run a check disk on your hard drive and have it check the system files.

Third thing if neither of them do anything, go to the run command and type in:

sfc /scannow

this will check for corrputed system files - you may need your disk in the machine in case it has to extract files to repair damaged ones.

ping but no browse may be a DNS issue.

"sfc /scannow" says Windows Resource Protection found crrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.   Details are included in the  CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

for example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log



--I have no idea what that means....

I don't know if I'm not using those command prompts correctly but I can't get them to work.  I think I'm just gonna reformat and install vista from scratch.  I don't really have many files on the computer now anyway....
