Help, problem with ethernet t42

i have a t42 laptop and i can not connect to the internet with the ethernet cord, my wireless is working fine ( wouldnt care if i actually had a wireless router). i have download all the drives download and nothing works.  i tried to install the 100/1000 thing and it says that i dont have the hardware?? whatever that means cause i if this computer has the port for the etherbet that it has to have the hardware. checked the bios and nothing. did all the windows update and nothing.i go into internet connections and it only shows the wireless. the only time i see the ethernet when im cr8ing a new set up connection or netword and i click the box where is says '' show connection options that this computer is not set up to use'' when i click it. it shows the broadband PPPoE( i think thats the ethernet right?) when i try to connect like that i get ''connection failed with error 651''  i feel like i wanna break this thing. can some please help me and put the ethernet back this laptop. thank you in advance

Your LAN card is dead, or disabled in BIOS.
If it's dead you'll have to get a PCMCIA card since Gigabit LAN is integrated into the motherboard on these machines and can't be replaced.
Good luck.

  • Problem with ethernet port

    So I have a wierd problem.
    Sometimes the ethernet port is working, sometimes not.
    I've tested the ethernet cable and it works perfect with other computerS.
    I've tested my macbook pro with other ethernet cables and the problem still occurs.
    I've tested the ethernet plug (in the wall) and it works pefect with other computerS.
    So only last potential problem : the ethernet plug / card IN my macbook pro.
    It is a 2.8 Ghz Intel Core i7 with 8 Gb of 1067 Mhz DDR3 RAM, and OS X 10.7.4.
    The problem is just random... sometime it works, sometime it doesn't... sometimes it works, and stop working... sometimes it works for days without problems... sometimes it doesn't work for days, with nothing to do.
    Can anyone help? I don't think I'm on the warranty anymore... so before I go drop my MBP at an Apple Store, I want to make sure I've tryed everything.
    Especially for the price I paid for this MBP, can't believe I'm hustling with such a basic feature......
    THANKS FOR THE HELP!!!

    I've used the reset chache solution with mixed success. I finally tripped over something that actually works every time.  The "secret" seems to be getting the apply button active when you are on the "location" where the ethernet connection is configured.  Here is what I did.
    move the ethernet connection configuration to another "location" within network preferences.  I called mine Home Wired.
    When the cable disconnected situation occurs, switch to the location that has wireless and enable wireless. Now turn it back off.
    Switch to the wired location and highlight the wired configuration and click apply.  It goes through the steps of acquiring an IP and then you are connected.

  • Problems with Ethernet controller and PCI device driver on Satellite L30-10X

    Hellow!
    Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Russia.
    Just few days ago I bought Satellite L30-10X with W Vista on board. My opinion, that this OS does't very good on this computer, so I install W XP.
    I have some problems with drivers. At first, I dont know what model I have:PSL30 or PSL33? I download all drivers for both models. But, after installation, computer doen't find drivers for Ethernet controller and PCI device...

    Hi
    Satellite L30-10X belongs to the PSL33E series. This number can be found on the label placed on the bottom of the unit!
    You have to choose this number from the driver download form to get the compatible XP drivers.
    I dont know why you are not able to install the LAN driver. Ive got the same notebook with Vista and Ive installed the XP and all drivers run fine.
    I assume you have installed the drivers in wrong order. Please take the look in the Toshiba installation instruction txt file. In this order you have to install the driver! Its important.
    I think you should install the XP again to ensure the clean registry and then download and install the compatible XP drivers like mentioned in the installation instruction file.
    Good luck

  • HELP/Problems with pull-down navigator bar

    Hi everyone,
    I was wondering if I could get some input. I have just
    re-designed our magazine's site, www.easternsurf.com
    I used Pop-Up menu function in Fireworks 8 to generate our
    Navigator bar. For the most part everything has been working well,
    BUT we've had a couple of complaints that the navigator bar's
    pull-down menus get stuck behind the photos/banner ads/etc. instead
    of in front of them when viewing in Internet Explorer. I'm on the
    Mac platform (OSX Tiger/Macromedia Studio 8) and have seen no
    problems viewing in Safari, Firefox and Netscape. The only
    complaints have come from Internet Explorer users. A couple of
    people updated their browser to the newest version and the problem
    disappeared, however we've still had a couple of people that have
    written in that the newest version of IE is still not displaying
    properly.
    Also we've got a strip of button ads running down the left
    hand side of each page and I've also seen another issue that's
    common on sites of this type...when the pulldown menu overlaps with
    a Flash element, there is a problem with the screen re-draw. I've
    seen this on several other sites and know it's a common problem,
    but does anyone know of a workaround where this won't happen? I
    just noticed that signing on to Adobe's site, there almost seems to
    be a command where the menu keeps re-drawing at a very rapid rate
    so this won't happen.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated, although I'm Mac all
    the way, we are a business and have to get this site visible for
    everyone!
    Thanks

  • Help - problem with white iphone 4 speaker

    Hi, i have a problem with my white iphone 4 speaker. I know the specs stated that the mic is supposed to be on the left and the right is the speaker but i've compared at least 2 other black iphones 4s and there is some volume from the left side (if you close the right side) whereas mine is practically non-existent. Should i be concerned? Is this specific to the white iphone 4? The local telco has not been helpful - they can only reformat the phone and said that this is a software problem. Anyone with similar experience pls share. Thanks in advance.

    You already know the answer.  ALL iphones, every single one of them, have but one speaker at the bottom.  You have NO ISSUE at all with your speakers.  None.  Nothing is wrong.  At all.  No problem.  None.

  • Pismo: problem with Ethernet access

    Hello. I have a new (used) Pismo with OS 10.3 installed. I operate a LAN via a DSL connection. I cannot get the Pismo on to the network. I use a cable that works fine with my G4 iBook, but when moved over to the Pismo; the Pismo cannot be made to access the LAN. I have looked over all the settings and cannot figure it out. This is also happening with a similarly configured G3 iBook SE (clam shell). Any ideas or suggestions. Thanks.

    Peter,
    OK, that is similar to my own setup (substituting a cable modem for the DSL, but I used to have a DSL). Wondering why you are using the LinkSys Router instead of the Airport Base station, since the ABS will do everything as well as pass Appletalk packets (between computers, wired and wireless) while the Linksys will only work with TCP/IP.
    Anyway, I assume you Linksys is set up to hand out DHCP addresses and also do the NAT from the single DSL IP address. Your computers are all set up to receive a TCP/IP address via DHCP, right? Finally, I would create a location in 10.3.9 Network system preference that has ONLY the Ethernet network port configuration defined. Do not leave it set to "automatic" since it may try to connect using some other means (such as the modem). If you have upgraded to Airport 4.2, that may also be causing some problems, although it is the Ethernet connection we are talking about.
    Note that I have had some problems with DHCP in the past so I use hard-defined Ethernet addresses for all my machines and not DHCP. Mine are all in the 10.0.1.x range (using the Airport Base station), but I think Linksys uses the 192.168.1.x range. You might try that, too.
    How are you using your Airport Base Station? And what model is it? Do you have wireless clients? Did any of the above resolve the issue?

  • Pleaseeeeeee Help - Problems with position of my web page

    Hi, first sorry on my english
    I have problem with position of my page. I had made my web page in Indesign CS5 and exported to swf file. My web page is working fine (www.igor-flytying.com) but the page is not in the middle of the web browser. How can I fix the problem????? I am a beginer in Indesign. I had try to make some changes in html file (salign) but still nothing.
    Please HELLLLLPPPPPP
    Regards
    Aljosa

    Petteri, SWFObject is much better because it loads the JavaScript so you don't see it inside the HTML page, but it still wraps the swf in a div which by default will be positioned in the upperleft of the browser window.
    This is the only way I've been able to center using SWFObject—note that it's the "flashcontent" div style that does the centering not the align embed parameter:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
    <head>
    <title>S W F | Centered</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html" />
    <!-- Centers the swf on the page. Note: width and height need to match the swf and margin left and right are -.50%-->
    <style type="text/css">
              #flashcontent {width: 1000px; height: 750px; margin-left: -500px; margin-top: -375px; position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 50%;}
    </style>
              <script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>
              <script type="text/javascript">
                        var flashvars = {};
                        flashvars.myFlashVar = "Testing";
                        var params = {}; //Embed parameters: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/127/tn_12701.html
                        params.quality = "best";
                        params.align="t"
                        //SWFObject parameters: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/wiki/api
                        swfobject.embedSWF("swftest.swf", "flashcontent", "1000", "750", "10.0", false, flashvars, params);

  • Please Help-Problem with Optical Drive, it's a Mystery...

    Well I'm a fairly big Imogen Heap fan, and her new CD came out the 25th. So I went to Best Buy and I bought the deluxe version which includes a seperate disc with instrumentals. I got home, put it in, and my Mac made a "scratching" kind of noise, then it spit out the disc. I figured there was a problem with it, I went back to Best Buy, got a new one, and it did the exact same thing.
    HOWEVER, both of the instrumental discs worked just fine, and imported just fine. The normal audio disc also works on my Ubuntu computer, Windows computer, and my other Early 2009 Macbook Pro. I also restarted my Mac, cleaned the disc, and that did nothing.
    So, what's the problem do you think?
    (Also I went to Apple but there were no appointments available, and they were too busy to just look at it without an appointment )

    Hi Mate,
    I didn't do an OS install, I took it to an apple store and made a Genius Bar appointemnt. Explained the proble and after 15min conversation, they diagnosed it as teh following;
    The felt/rubber where you put the CD/DVD had gone hard and the friction is causing the CD/DVD to get stuck and be loaded. They tried to tell me that I need to replace the top case  (£140+VAT) as its in-built into it or I can use a £3 spudger to push the CD's in......needles to say the Spudger works fine.....Shame I wasted £100 on the new optical drive ;o( Maybe sell teh spare on eBay....Happy days!

  • Help, problem with keeping ipod connected..

    When I connect my ipod, it updates in itunes and then disconnects itself from the computer...how do I make it so after it updates it stays connected and keeps flashing "Do Not Disconnect" on the ipod?

    rahul,
    OK, I do understand you may be having some early problems with just a little bit of data with a few tunes. Have you thought about what you will do in the future as you add more? This is my post on that topic:
    I have been trying to find a way to upload my CD library to my new 60GB iPod (that function works fine) and classify / manage my CD library on it (using iTunes)- that function is nearly unworkable. Now, today, I have used my only 'free' direct APPLE Support contact and the basic answer was 'Too Bad for You!! The iPod does not have nor support multi level indexing or playlists!!!! So...go ahead, load 500 or 600 Cd's onto your iPod and then try to find the tracks you wish to play!! It can't be done except for a 'flat' one level filing system!!! What a BUMMER

  • Help - Problem with Java Updating

    In updating to the latest version of Java - 8.45 - I must also load the Unlimited Strength encryption files.  At least, that's what the README file sez ...
    Unfortunately - when I agree to the terms, and download the "Unlimited Policy" zip file, it contains the US Export Policy encryption file, and NOT the Unlimited Policy File. 
    Can someone help me with what's going on here?  Thanks in advance ... !

    My friend looks like that u are using javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter class as your file filter. Nothing wrong with it, but it works only with JFileChooser and not with the java.io.File.listFiles method. for that u will have to implement the java.io.FileFilter interface.
    He is the code example...
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class FileTest implements FileFilter {
         public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception {
              new FileTest();
         public FileTest() {
              File f = new File(".");
              File [] list = f.listFiles(this);
              for (int i = 0; i < list.length; i++) {
                   System.out.println(list);
    class MyFileFilter implements FileFilter {
         public boolean accept(File pathName) {
              if (pathName.isDirectory()) return true;
              String ext = pathName.getName();
              ext = ext.substring(ext.lastIndexOf(".") + 1, ext.length());
              if (ext.equals("java")) { //check for any extension you want to list

  • Z77A-GD65 Problems with Ethernet (Intel 82579V) Code 10 and 55 error

    it is just a day with disaster. I bought Z77A-GD65 yesterday, and now it almost driver me crazy , i have two most famous problem of the board ,the CODE10 and ERROR 55!!!
    after i bought this board to home ,i spend few hour to figure out the reason why the system can not be booted.
    the DIMM SLOT 3&4 of my board is malfunction,no matter what combination i use (1&3,2&3, 3&4...etc),but it works for 1 and 2(i have 4 ram sticks,all of them is fine)
    i do upgrade to BIOS 10.5(thx god ,i have two computer ,otherwise i cant even do it because of following issue)
    after i solve the problem by only plug in 2 ram (DIMM1&2), succeed to boot up, a new problem occurred to me ,the CODE10!
    latest driver , clean system install ,cmos cleaned, does not help.
    i have read this thread for code10
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=158591.msg1167303#msg1167303
    and  for error55
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=158224.0
    it seems the best way to solve it is RMA.
    I notice that there is an Authorized Motherboard Repair Center (East Coast):
    361 Alden Road
    Markham, Ontario, L3R 3L
    i live in Toronto, can i just go there and give the board to them  to fix it or i can only mail it?
    If i need to mail it ,what should i do?

    Code 10 means the device cannot start. You have the right driver for the Intel 82579V is shorted by either a motherboard screw or a raiser under it. The ethernet adapter has lights which light up id driver is installed (even though code 10 is in effect).
    Solution: Remove 1 or 2 motherboard screws and turn the pc on. Repeat until you find out which screw caused the issue. For me it was the screw closest to the ethernet controller.
    The wa i fixed it was I was used a plastic washer and I was still able to have the motherboard screw in and at the same time not get code 10 anymore and my Intel 82579V worked fine since.
