| 848784 | 2010-01-14 18:11:00 | Family of mine got a problem with their laptop running Vista - can't connect to the wireless modem and can't print wirelessly (Could do it a few weeks ago). Last night I had a look to see if I could see something wrong, but I'm not so clued up on Vista - would you guys direct me to a site for general problems on Vista please. Got no idea what brand of laptop and no idea of RAM or processor (forgot to check). sarel |

| 848786 | 2010-01-14 23:55:00 | I think I've seen this kind of trouble before, on SWMBO's old lappie. Does Vista suffer from the same Winsock troubles as XP? sarel |

| 848789 | 2010-01-18 18:39:00 | So I checked the laptop yesterday again. I thought it could be the Winsock, but it seemed not to be the problem. I did notice though that when you search for a network, Vista barely do a search when it comes back and say nothing has been found. Quite puzzling, I've checked everything known to man. Compaq Presario C700 Notebook Celeron 560 @ 2.13 GHz 1 Gig Ram Vista Home Basic fully updated. Basic problem : the Laptop could connected to the wireless modem (and printed wirelessly) until about two weeks ago. No changes, no installations, nothing has changed. Any further ideas would be really appreciated. I also wonder whether I shouldn't point this guy to one of our local PF1'ers. sarel |

| 848791 | 2010-01-19 05:36:00 | This works every time with the Asus Eee 701, may work with yours. Power Off Remove the charger. Remove any other cables. Remove the battery. Make a cup of coffee. Replace the battery. Refit the cables. Boot. With any luck it might go on line! |
