Laptop G570 not connecting to TV

I have a Lenovo G570 with no HDMI but with VGA. I bought this computer in Sep/2011. I got a cable with a VGA on one end and a HDMI on the other. I connected them to their respective place, changed the input on the TV to HDMI1 and... NOTHING! What is going on, what do I need to make it work, can it work?
For your help... Thanks a lot!

My laptop will not connect to the internet

My laptop will not connect to the internet but my desktop and other laptops will. Can anyone suggest anything?

Yes I don't see problems there.
I presume the 10.0.2.29 on the Mac is just a typo.
There is a good chance windows is just being stupid, which is not surprising.
Reboot the whole system.
Restart in correct order.. modem.. TC.. 2min gap between them, and then PC.
Test with just the PC running.
See if you can open a web page.. no luck
In the command window again, ping the various IP addresses.
So ping 10.0.1.1 first.
Then ping 8.8.8.8
If those pings work, then try and ping a website. eg www.google.com
Does that work or not?
If ping works and the web pages won't open that is one of those hard ones.
Make sure under network in the PC it is located at home.. not work or public. Windows has this nasty habit of flipping itself autonomously between these settings.. take off the firewall if it is still a problem.
And finally go into the TCP/IP settings and change the DNS to 8.8.8.8

Laptop will not connect to the Internet

My laptop will not connect to any internet networks, instead it shows a Red Cross where it usually has the signal.

Check to see if the antenna cables are connected and the wifi card is seated in correctly.

Laptop will not connect to the internet, cannot get configuration box to pop up

Cannot get laptop to connect to the internet. I tried the instructions on the link form Linksys. I entered 192.168.1.1 in the address window but the configuration window does not pop up.

Is the laptop connected to a wireless network? Is it connected to your network name? If it is check the IP address for me. Go to Status of your wireless connection then Details, tell me your IPv4 IP address.
If the laptop is not connected to any wireless network. Do you have a wired computer or can you attach your laptop to the router, check your IP address. If it's in the range of 192... try if you can go to http://192.168.1.1
I'll be waiting for your reply.

AOL Broadband, will connect to laptop, but not connect to internet explorer. WRT54GS v.6

I can connect to my wireless network via my laptop, but not to internet explorer. We have changed every setting imaginable and re-set the modem, router many times. We Ip configed, did ping tests, installed and re-installed the card in the laptop. Done all this 4 times with the tech support from Linksys. Finally, I realized it must the wireless router and/or modem configuration. (The laptop works on every other network in town except ours, and has not security settings enabled).
I have been on customer service calls for 2 weeks, with AOL and linksys and nothing seems to be helping me. I have 2 wireless routers (thought the first was bad, so bought another brand new), and just had a brand new modem installed. Basically, I have brand new equipment.
The laptop has no security settings and connect to any wireless network in town. It finds the connection to my WRT54GS v.6, but will not connect via internet explorer.
I want to uninstall and re-install the router. How do I uninstall the router? (I have instruction for re-installation). Also AOL rep told me, to make sure I configure the router to a certain port range. Any ideas as to how to do this?
Anyone have problems with AOL high speed and linksys router? Has the high speed cable cord coming out of the wall, not ethernet or DSL.
We have changed the settings in http://192.168.1.1 till I am blue in the face. None of the channels worked, security didn't work, adding the ip address manually to the laptop didn't work. I am getting no error messages. Am trying to get this wireless modem working because I need it. Should have come to this forum first!

hi..if you want to uninstall the router...the only thing you need to do is hold the reset button down for 30 seconds...
i m a bit confused here as to why the ISP techs asked you to forward ports on the router...port forwarding is needed for a specific application or a device that is behind the router....
the mentioned ports are for AOL messenger ( AIM )....and has nothing to do with the modem...anyways , let us work out together on this issue...carry out the steps i mention and you can revert back with the results and your success rate...
1) connect the computer to the modem and check what ip address you have on the computer ??
2) go to start -> control panel -> network connections ->
let me know what other icons you have besides Local Area Connection and Wireless Network Connection..
3)connect the computer to the router and the router to the modem...
access the router using http://192.168.1.1 .. let the internet connection type be on DHCP....check the ip address on the status page of the router ui...
4) if it is 0.0.0.0 , go to setup tab and go to mac address clone subtab , enable it and hit clone..save the settings and do a power cycle...
5) check whether you have the ip address...if you have the same ip as coming off of the modem..u should be online and if still 0.0.0.0 , then select PPPoE for the internet connection type and enter the username and password...check whether the ip address comes up....if still negative, ensure that the modem is in bridge mode...
6)if the ip address comes up as 192.168.1.x , change the local ip add of the router to 192.168.2.1 and do a power cycle..
let me know for any help !!!

My Lenovo laptop will not connect to my airport wifi

i work from home and my work computer will not connect to my new wifi airport time capsule. Is it a setting on the laptop?

Hey ebe301,
Sorry to hear about your troubles with your PC. If you are not seeing your iPhone on your computer, then take a look at the link below to walk you through getting that working again. It will have you verify that drivers are installed and working as well as any third party software that may be causing conflicts.

Satellite L455-S5975 Laptop will not connect to public wifi

I have a Satellite L455-S5975 laptop. I am trying to connect to a public (but security code protected) wireless network, WPA2. I have successfully connected a few times, but when I "sleep" my computer or restart it, I can no longer connect. The wireless network is recognized and I am prompted for the password, but it will not connect. When I run the troubleshooting, it asks me to restart the wireless router. Restarting the router does work and allows me to connect, but it is a router used by many other people and I don't have the option of resetting it every time I want to get on the internet. I have looked into updating the wireless driver software, but cannot determine what I need. I believe I am running Windows 10 on my computer. Any advice would be appreciated!

Can you get the settings you have on your Realtek® 802.11b/g wireless LAN.
You can get to these properties by following instructions:
CONTROL PANEL / NETWORKING AND SHARING CENTER
CLICK TO OPEN
ON LEFT CLICK CHANGE ADAPTER SETTINGS
SELECT ADAPTER
RIGHT CLICK
SELECT PROPERTIES
FROM HERE :
CLICK CONFIGURE
SELECT ADVANCED;
HERE WE NEED YOU TO POST BACK ALL OF THE PROPERTIES AND THEIR VALUES (VERY IMPORTANT) YOU HAVE SET HERE.
ONCE DONE IMPORTANT CANCEL ALL THE WAY OUT DO NOT CLICK OK
If you could get the Router Model number it would be helpful also.
Once you have posted your results, we should be able to help answer your question.

My Windows Laptop does not connect to my apple 4th generation time capsule can not connect to internet.

I have a HP laptop running Windows 7. I a habe a 4th generation time capsule for wireless internet. everytime my laptop restarts it will not pick up and run the internet. i have to run the trouble shooter program to get it to reconnect. Sometimes this works sometime it does not the laptop and time capsule are both up todate on all the softwhere.

Is the TC working in router or bridge mode??
Have you set SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.. not apple names.
Have you set wireless with different name for 5ghz.. and set channels manually and tested them.
11, 6, 1 for 2.4ghz in that order. Low.. say 36 or 40 and around 150 for 5ghz.
Test with no wireless security.. is it then working.. if so, then set wpa2 personal security with a password of 10-20 characters pure alphanumeric.
On a computer /device that does work find out the following.
DNS and Gateway.
When the PC connects to the wireless does it get the right values for DNS and Gateway.. if not then the TC is either incompatible or wireless driver is not compatible.
The fact that your windows is up to date does not mean the wireless drivers are.. Intel make the worst drivers.. if the laptop has intel wireless card. Expect trouble.
Download direct from Intel the most current driver and the last 3 or 4 available.. not even the latest is a guarantee it will work.
Even if everything is right.. dns gateway.. connection.. security.. wireless channel.. it is wireless.. it can still refuse to move packets.. it is simply the nature of the beastie. Wireless is 80% voodoo still.
Buy a different wireless chipset USB stick.. or get a wireless router like a TP-Link.. very cheap, $30-50 and use it as a WAP plugged into the TC.

I recently acquired a SuperMicro chassis that has a SAS2 expander backplane. It has SFF-8087 ports on it.http://www.supermicro.com/manuals/other/BPN-SAS2-846EL.pdfI made a post on another forum and someone mentioned that the card couldn't be used with that backplane since it's a SATA controller, however, the backplane is both SAS and SATA device compliant, it's only the RAID controller, as far as I know, that is a "SATA II" controller, and not a SAS controller.So, I couldn't find anything in the official documentation of this controller on whether or not it was able to control SAS devices. The card itself has a 3 SFF-8087 ports though, couldn't this theoretically still be used with a SFF-8087 to SFF-8087 cable(seen below)since the backplane is a SAS/SATA backplane?...

I have a brand new MacBook Pro . I am trying to connect to the private wifi at my house but I need the IP address of my laptop . Everywhere I go on the laptop, the IP address is blank . How do I find the IP address if laptop is not connected to the wifi

I have a brand new MacBook Pro and I'm trying to connect to the private wifi at my house however, I need the IP address. Everywhere I go to find it, the adress is blank. What do I do ?

Your Mac won't have an IP address, at least not a valid IP, until you actually connect it to your home LAN. Not sure why you think you need the IP, you don't.
To connect to your home WiFi you need to know the SSID name, IE the name of your home WiFi, and the password for it. Once you have those two things click the little antenna looking icon on the right side of the menu bar and select your home WiFi name and click connect. A dialog box will pop up asking for the password, type in the password and click OK/Connect/Whatever.

My Laptop will not connect to itunes, saying there is an internet connection problem. This is not so as I can connect to other websites. I have Windows 7, but do have a new internet supplier! Can anyone help?

Please note: I am NOT technically minded, although, I have accessed the itunes store through the same laptop and iPhone4 previously. Kindest Regards. Cx

Disable any security software on the computer and try again.

I have installed a Apple Time Machine now my Windows laptop will not connect to the internet

I recently installed an Airport Time Capsule without any problems and my iphone, ipad and Macbook Air can all connect to the internet without issues, but my son's Windows desktop suddenly won't connect to the internet.
It basically joins the network and shows that it has internet access but when you go to any webpage it says, "unable to connect to the internet"
I rang the BT helpline as i have installed the Mcafee anti-virus, which was free, thinking that there might be a confliction? After a few checks i was asked to disconnect the Time Capsule and re-connect the BT router. As soon as i did that i got internet access on my sons machine.
BT suggested i speak to Apple as there is obviously something i need to do to the desktop to enable it to work with the Time Capsule, and it is beyond their capability.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance, Pete
