Just Re-formatted computer and reinstalled Windows XP; problems

Hey everyone, I just re-formatted my computer and reinstalled Windows XP, but I can't seem to connect to FIOS. I have the modem sitting on my desk next to me, and all the other computers in the house are connected to it by wire just fine, but when I replugged my wire back into my computer, nothing happened. I tried making a new internet connection, but it wouldn't let me do that for FIOS. The only thing I see under Network Connections is a 1394 connection, and it say Connected, Firewalled. I do not recall getting a CD or anything from the FIOS guy who installed it in our house a while back, so I have no clue what to do. Can someone please help?

I went to the dell website and put in dimension 8400. They do have the driver there.
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&ServiceTag=&SystemID=DIM_...=
It under network and is listed as "broadcom driver". Broadcom, Intel, Marvell are three companies that make network adapters. Since Broadcom driver is listed under network on the dell webpage I would assume that your machine has a broadcom network adapter. I would install that and see what happens.

  • Can I format HDD and reinstall Windows 7 on Qosmio F60 without CD

    I think my hard drive is failing on my Quosmio F60 so I want to reformat the hard drive to see if that will fix it. But I don't have the original packaging and information with me at the moment so I'm not sure if it came with a windows 7 CD or not. Either way, I don't have the CD.
    I found on the net that most manufacturer's who deliver without a CD include a "recovery partition" or "factory image partition" that you can access during boot up. Does anyone know if the Quosmio F60 came with a CD or if it has this recovery partition or factory image partition? Or do you know if there's a way I can check if my computer has it?
    If you have any other information on formatting the hard drive and reinstalling windows 7 without the CD please let me know.
    Thanks.

    The notebook did not come with an Windows disk because there is an tool called Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator which create the recovery disk.
    The recovery partition was available and it allows you to recover the notebook without the usage of recovery disk but this does not work if the HDD has failed.
    Here a nice HowTo about HDD recovery
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm
    So if you dont have a recovery disk and cannot recovery the notebook using HDD recovery then you have two options:
    - You will order a new recovery disk
    - You would install Windows OS using an Microsoft disk

  • Apps won't sync in touch after formating computer and installing Windows 7

    Hello, I have a strange problem.
    I was using my 2nd gen, iPod touch (16gb) with no problems, sync was good.
    I formated my notebook and installed Windos 7 (RC).
    Installed iTunes with out any issues.
    When I connected my iPod, it re-sync with all the musics and podcasts, but the apps didn't. Actually looks like it does, the sync logs in my ipod, it complains about some apps that are on the ipod and not the itunes, and, after I resolved this issues, looks like it will sync. But it does not. No error messages. Just nothing happens.
    Anyone?
    Thanks

    According to the download site, Windows 7 is not mentioned as supported OS:
    Windows Software
    Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, or 32-bit editions of Windows Vista
    64-bit editions of Windows Vista or later require the iTunes 8 64-bit installer
    QuickTime 7.5.5 or later is required (included)
    200MB of available disk space
    As this is Windows7RC, wait until it is officially supported.

  • Formating and Reinstalling Windows Without a Recovery CD

    I do not have access to my recovery cd as I am currently overseas, and im looking to format and reinstall windows. What would be the best way to do this? Are the recovery cds completely integral to the reinstallation of windows?
    I just dont want to do the reinstall and find I have no screen etc.

    Hi
    Well, if you have no Recovery CD you can install the Windows OS from the original Microsoft Windows CD. Then you can try to download the all necessary Toshiba drivers from the Toshiba download page.
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    But note: You should update the drivers in the right order. The drivers are placed in the right order and this is very important for the new installation.
    Bye

    I have just reformatted my drive and reinstalled creative cloud and lightroom. When i open it, it says there is another version running the catalog and i have to switch to it to fix the problem, but there is no other version on my computer. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Where did you put the LR catalog?
    Did you install the same version of LR, which one?
    OS and version?
    Open the folder where the catalog (*.lrcat) is located. If you see a file with lock in it while LR is not running, delete it.
    Now try to start LR again.

  • How to restore all your bookmarks after refreshing your computer and reinstalling mozilla?

    my computer started bugging and then I was obliged to restart it but the computer proposed me to refresh because my computer does not start well and I did it and i hadto reinstall mozilla. now my problem is that i lost all my bookmarks and i really want to have them back because they are important. i tried all i can to restore them but without success

    If for instance you reformatted the hard dive and reinstalled the Windows 8 Operating System then unless you had a backup disk image or specific backups elsewhere of Firefox data then you will have lost your bookmarks.
    It depends rather on what you did when you refreshed the computer and reinstalled Firefox.
    Firefox itself tries to keep bookmark backups, and WIndows tried to keep some previous versions of files.
    Please try to give more detailed information about what you did.
    '''Immediately backingup your Firefox profile''' may help to preserve some of those bookmarks and backups so you should do that. Then post back and explain what you did when refreshing the computer. Try use the same jargon as was in the instructions you followed, for instance did you reformat the hard disk drive?
    * [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    For future reference it may be useful to make and keep occasional manual backups of Firefox bookmarks
    * [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer#w_manual-backup]]'''_manual-backup'''
    Do you use Firefox Sync ?

  • Formatted USB and installed windows but cannot reformat drive

    Recently ive tried to install windows onto my laptop. I formatted USB and installed windows but cannot reformat drive the drive. I even tried to have bootcamp reformat the drive and it says it cant. I opened disk utility and it cannot do anything to it. I just want my flashdrive working again.

    Your USB flash Sandisk is correctly formatted as a FAT disk and called Wininstall when you used Bootcamp Assistant and checked the second check box to download BC drivers.
    If you are unable to see the FAT partition which will become NTFS for you Windows installation, that is a different issue.
    Have you looked at https://help.apple.com/bootcamp/mac/5.0/help/ ?

    My Windows 7 Professional desktop system hard disk got corrupted and I took the opportunity to install an SSD for a new system disk and reinstall Windows.  The system is up and running on the SSD, with my old system disk now used for storage as it is still readable.  The only Adobe product I have reinstalled so far is Reader XI but I would like to reinstall Elements 8 and Acrobat 9 without taking up more licences as both are also installed on my laptop.  Can you point me to the best way to do this?  - Thanks

    If you have the two allotted activations already and one was lost on the hard drive that failed then you need to contact Adobe Support thru chat and ask them to reset your activations.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    This helped me.
    Go to Start -- Accessories -- Command Prompt, make right click and choose run as administrator
    Type this command : netsh winsock reset
    then restart your computer, everything should be ok after this. Good Luck.
