This isn’t really meant so much to be humorous, witty, or even thought provoking. This is the rare occasion when I feel it within me to assist humanity. If I can reach one person out there, it’ll make the following all worth it.
Over the last month or so, I’ve had a bunch of computer issues. I won’t bore you every detail, but I want to highlight one, because my story could save your life (some time/energy).
Here was the issue: I couldn’t upgrade Windows XP or download/upgrade anything from Microsoft’s website. If I clicked on “Upgrade Windows” in Internet Explorer, it didn’t go to the Microsoft page. It would load a page that looked similar to a standard Google search page, but read “Google English.” And anytime I tried downloading content from Mr. Gates, I would get an error window.
I tried using Firefox and Safari, but those didn’t help. I tried installing some update files on a CD I created from another computer. That didn’t work either. So many message boards out there told me to try various scanning and antivirus programs. So I did that too. Didn’t help.
Eventually, after some advice from Bozzz, and finally stumbling upon some good advice on a message board, I realized the issue was the router settings.
For now, IGNORE ALL THAT ANTIVIRUS SHIT. It’s a waste of time. ASSUMING you’re running a router, using a paperclip or pen, press and hold the little button on that router router in for a few seconds. If you’re running a wireless network, you’ll probably have to go into your router settings, and fill in some basic info/settings. Name of network, and password for it pretty much. If I could do this, you could do this.
