Help,kids going crazy

Hi,need help here.currently have fios with actiontec router m1424wr which is connected to desktop computer via ethernet cable and laptop via wireless. Everything was fine until I had to reinstall windows xp onto desktop computer last week. Since I reinstalled windows xp I cant connect to internet. The laptop still connects wirelessly so i know the router is ok. Im pretty sure I need to install software to desktop to allow computer to see router but the only disk I could find from when I got fios last year just looks like a manual for the router. I went into device manager and there is a yellow line through ethernet connection indicating a problem. Do i need to install something that im missing onto desktop to allow a connection. Help

You probably need to install the driver for the LAN (Ethernet) adapter. IT was probably already installed when you bought the PC, however the Windows XP DVD doesn't include all possible  drivers.
Device manager is telling you it doesn't know what to do with the device, and that usually means you don't have a driver for it (or it is broken).  Device manager should be able to tell you exactly kind of network adapter you have, and then it is a matter of going to the web site for the manufacturer and downloading the drivers for XP.
My guess is you will have to down load it to your laptop, and then get it to to desktop via USB drive/Floppy/or burn a CD with the driver information on it.
One you have the driver, if you go to 'add hardware' in Control Panel, it will walk you through installing the driver.
Once the driver is installed, most likely everything will work. There is no specific software other than the driver that you need to install. I.E. FiOS internet works just fine without ANY of the Verizon provided software. I don't have it on the PC I am writing this on.

    Also, your actionPerformed() method is spelled incorrectly, and so your class isn't fulfilling its obligation to inherit the ActionListener interface.
    Please indent your code properly and use code tags in the future, like this:

  • Help ! Going crazy : stuck with leopard Setup Assistant

    I've installed and used Leopard since its launch.
    Experienced some minor problems : iCal stopped when trying to open a Task... Bin could not empty on securized mode.
    Today, after the same problem, I had to force to reboot and now it's running to Mac OS X Setup Assistant again and again, as if it never got it.
    What can I do ?
    Thanks for your help.

    There are three key problems with this system:
    The skype reset only allows you to reset your Microsoft password - not your skype password
    You cannot receive skype support without logging into Skype
    It does not appear that the Skype team is monitoring the forum as there are many of these threads floating around unanswered
    I don't know if it's the first rule of website design, but people forget their passwords all the time. If you really want people to use your services, Microsoft, you should remove this ridiculous loop from your system.
    The most commong problem in all these cases is the following:
    A user signed up for Skype account "john.doe456" a few years ago using an email address [email protected]
    Later the user linked their Microsoft account [email protected] to the Skype account
    Now it's March 2015 and they try to reset their Skype account password and request a password reset using the [email protected] email.
    Users will always be forwarded to the Microsoft account password recovery. To reset the Skype account password you need to request the password recovery to the [email protected] registered email address of the Skype account. Many users have forgotten what their Skype account registered email was because they haven't updated them for long. In this case you need to contact Skype CS and get your primary account email changed. The starting point for this process is to fill out the form for "I don't know my registered email address" here:

  • Help. Going crazy with subclass.

    I am extending class Client with myClient. Why do I get a symbol not found in the myClient() constructor?
    // File: Client.java
    package testproj;
    public class Client {
        public Client(String conn){
            String xyz=conn;
    // File: myClient.java
    package testproj;
    public class myClient extends Client {
    // Gives error on the myClient Constructor as follows:
    // C:\App\testproj\src\testproj\myClient.java:5: cannot find symbol
    // symbol  : constructor Client() location: class testproj.Client
        public myClient(String conn){  
            int x=1;
    }

    Typically when you extend a class it is because you do want to initialize, and probably use, what is in that class. This rings doubly true when you created the parent class specifically for extending it in this project.
    For example, why on earth would you override foo with the exact same method? I realize both are empty and you probably intend there to be different code in each, but as it currently stands, there is no reason to override foo, the foo in MyClient is just simply not needed.
    But in my opinion your real problem here is you haven't figured out what constructors and methods are for. Constructors are for initializing a class, methods are for java code. Your example falls into some wierd gray area the myVar=xyz definitely fits and belongs in the constructor, but adding the additional text should probably be handled by a method since it appears that getting the different strings presumably for output is the crux of what you are trying to do.
    The reason you don't want to initialize is because you think " take care" will somehow get added in if you run it the way you have it, which is exactly why this sort of stuff should not be in constructors. But rest assured, for as you have it, the string will not contain "Loser take care" because as soon as you set it to that you turn around and reset it to "Loser terminate his a**". Any other concerns you have about initialization the parent are equally unfounded in the code you provided.
    Plus you don't seem to be aware that there can be more than one constructor. If you just added the following to class Client just above your current constructor;
    public Client(){
    } then you can remove the (xyz) in your super call and not have to worry about anything.

  • Scroll bar goes crazy and active window jumps around in size - Help

    I've got iTunes 7.0.5 installed. If I use iTunes for any length of time, my system goes crazy. The scroll bar on whatever program I make active goes up and down like mad, while the content of the active window shrinks and magnifies in size multiple times a second. It's very bizarre and consistently happens only when I run iTunes for some length of time. I have no problem if I choose Windows Media Player. It's very disturbing, as I can no longer use iTunes. Any help in knowing how to fix the problem, or even to trouble shoot it further, would be greatly appreciated.

    Here are a couple of thoughts on the Timeline scrolling and other possible display issues:
    1.) make sure that you have the very latest video driver - the very latest
    2,) if you have Vista, turn Aero and Sidebar off
    3.) if you have Window Blinds, get the very latest version
    4.) if you have an InteliPoint mouse driver, try removing it, and using the standard Windows mouse driver instead*
    5.) if you have a laptop and both the touch-pad and a mouse are installed and ON, turn the touch-pad OFF
    These are some suggestions that might affect your display issues.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    * The MS InteliPoint has caused many display issues with Adobe products. Most often, these have manifested themselves in flashing GUI's and similar, but other odd behaviors have been experienced. If the removal of InteliPoint does help, try the very latest version, but be ready to revert to the standard Windows mouse driver.

  • I need help...im going crazy!!!!

    I have been usings my ipod mini for about 7 months now,an 2 days ago i tried to upload cd's to it.now for some reason it wont connect to my computer.i updated it already too an that didnt work an i also reset it an still nothing.i am going crazy trying to figure this out can someone please help me without having to delete itunes off my computer because then i lose my 800 songs!

    Your Windows PC doesn't recognize iPod
    And fyi, deleting iTunes from the computer does not cause you to lose the songs. The iTunes music folder remains unaffected.

  • My keyboard occasionally goes crazy, not allowing me to type. Also, cursor goes crazy and opens pages and windows at will. Help!

    My typing cursor frequently goes crazy, not allowing me to type and jumping from place to place, deleting letters. Suddenly, a line I have typed will be highlighted and deleted at will.  Also, mouse cursor moves at will, opening multiple  pages in seconds. Help!  What could be causing this, and how can I stop it?
    I've had my Macbook pro for over a year and it has never done this before. Restarting the computer fixes the problem temporarily.

    My first thought was the hard drive and OS has a built in Sudden Motion Sensor whcih will stop the hard drive heads from crashing into the platters when the computer is moved suddenly. This does work most of the time and could cause some of the tings you are seeing.
    But then after reading more of your first post it seems your system and drive is doing some very strange things.
    It would be best to first take it into an Apple Genius Bar and have it looked at. They can run tests on it and since it is still in the original 1 year warranty this should not cost you anything even if something needs to be replaced.
    You can also run the Apple Hardware Test on it your self by connecting it to the Net by Ethernet cable and booting holding down the d key or the Command+d keys. That will boot the computer from the Apple internet servers and load the AHT.
    Good Luck.

  • My black berry tour 9300 is going crazy help ASAP!

     I went away for a week and the second day my phone started going crazy. It would freeze and type in huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu until the whole thing was filled with it and when i try to type "hahahaha" it ends up like this "huahuahuahua" i first thought that maybe i got sand in it so i brought that air duster you use for keyboards on computers it helped a little but its still freezing i still cant type in words or use my key board or my enter button, end button, and menu button. What can i do? it also took my pictures and deleted them. HELP ME PLEASE!!!

    It sounds like what I have seen multiple times on a device with moisture damage.
    Even sitting on a bathroom counter during a hot steamy shower or bath can cause keyboard and trackball problems UNTIL properly dried out.
    It really is more common than you think.
    1. Remove the battery immediately!! Do not attempt to turn on your BlackBerry.
    2. Let the device dry in a warm, dry place for 3 to 5 days* (see below)
    3. DO NOT "check it each day" by placing the battery in. Leave it be to dry completely. This takes time. Replacing the battery to check it can only damage it more (moisture + electrical current = disaster).
    3. If the device is warm after the drying period, allow it to cool to room temperature before placing the battery back in.
    *Suggestions on drying your BlackBerry in a warm place (open, with the battery out):
    Place the BB in a container of dry UNcooked rice, and then you might also place it in any of the locations mentioned below.
    On top of any dry heat emitting electronic component: TV cabinet or CRT, LCD, cable TV/Satellite converter box or plasma monitor
    On the dashboard of your car on a sunny day

  • IMac permissions going crazy! Need Help!

    When I turn on my iMac, it's fine. After I start using it for awhile, it starts going crazy on me, as if clicking back and forth between any window that is open and the desktop. Also, I try and left click on the mouse, but it acts as if it is a right click. Sometimes when I type with my keyboard, it will act as if I am holding down a key. Each action happens when I am trying to type, click, or just use any application.
    I tried to solve this issue by going into Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and clicked "Mactintosh HD", then "verify disk permissions". Once it verified it, I clicked "repair disk permissions". The issue seemed to get resolved, but only temporarily. Everytime I log on to my iMac, it keeps going crazy agian, and then I have to repair disk permissions again. I'm hoping it's not a Mac virus. Can anybody help me resolve this issue permanently? Thanks!

    Try to determine if it's a battery problem with a wireless keyboard, get a wired keyboard and mouse and reboot the machine with that and see if it continues.
    Once you have ruled out the external hardware, then we can start looking at software issues.
    Get a copy of your personal data file folders (Music, Pictures, Documents etc.) off the computer to a external storage drive (not TimeMachine) as soon as possible.

    For outlook or hotmail emails they use a pop server technology that you can't sync your computer and your iPhone with. You have to unfortunately delete the emails from both devices. It is super frustrating but that is the only way.
    Hope this helps.
