Also keep in mind the composing credit here is to Mac, but it still dosen't rule out the lyrics being about Jane like the majority of the rest of the album.

We have neighbors behind us who use to crank up a mix of Spanish music and Queen to serious loud volumes. It was pretty much on a spanish/queen/spanish/queen/spanish etc. basis... And it was so loud you could hear it in the house with all doors and windows shut. To hear the overplayed Macarina follo...

Gah, I can't switch the cards, because the Video Card is in the AGP slot, so it can't be moved! The antenna still isn't able to stick straight up. How come this issue with antennas has never appeared in any troubleshooting and FAQs I've read? Someone else has to have had the issue.

Oh, Ok, I thought so, I just wanted to make sure I didn't confuse the system any. I'll be swapping them soon. This should give the signal more strength, but I'll still need to work on the other problem...

There is another dilemma I should mention. When installing my wireless PCI card, all my PCI slots were full (from top to bottom Video, Ethernet, Modem, Sound). So, I had to remove one of those cards, and Video and Sound were certainly not in the selection. I chose the Ethernet card, because it was t...

No real manual came with it, just brouchures that are more about the parental controls then the actual router. There are some FAQ on one of them, but it wasn't much help.

And the light labeled "Internet" on the router is lit...

Just says connected to the linksys network (I don't have a name for it anymore since I reset it). It asked for a network key, but it w...

Ok, I'll give it a try.

To do this I unplug the cable going from this PC to the router then hit the reset button on the back of th router, right?

But will I be without internet on this computer here? This may get the comp. in my room online, but I still need access here, or else the whole purpose of my own personal computer will be defeated as I'll get my parents comming in my room for internet access. So, should I unplug the cable going from...

Correct..also if you can receive a signal from the router...go into your connection properties...and where it shows which networks you may want to connect to, under the wireless networks tab there's a box up at the top..."Allow windows to configure my wireless connection" That may help......

So the 98 one (the one hooked wired, if I read this right) is working fine on the internet, and the wireless one is the one that's not working, which is XP? Yes, this is correct. Also, on the wireless, if you do a scan for nearby wireless networks, do you see anything? If yes, go into your network ...

The internet is good, as the wired machine is the one I'm on now.

Tried all that, went through all the configurations and all. Changed the password.

Router/Wireless Network Troubles Ok, here’s the deal. I had this Dell Dimension in my room (running a P4) for 3 years, and it’s all of that time it’s just been a gaming and music machine. Many times since then I’ve seen it to a waste of technology as it was without internet access, and this computer...
