Woe is my computer
Sep. 21st, 2004 06:56 pmOkay. So the problem with installing Windows XP resolved itself last night (and I have no idea how. I left it installing one last time while I went on the big computer, and then I go back to my room to go to bed and all and it finished installing and properly and all o.O), but...
Yes, there's always that "but" there, isn't there? -_-;
But...I still do not have the internet. My network adaptor card needed to be updated to go with XP rather than 98, and I thought that that would be a simple process--put in the disc I first used to install it, and install it again. I should have known that things are never so easy with my laptop.
It completed installing, and got to restarting to finish the installation and all that, and then I get a message saying that the computer isn't connected to the network because the previous installation is now outdated, or something like that, and please reinstall using the CD.
I've been reinstalling using the CD! Every time I try, it installs just fine, and then tells me it's outdated.
Some of you understand technology! What am I doing wrong?
Also, randomly...
Hello, all the 200 people who have friended me now! Look at how supremely uninteresting my journal is. :p Want to introduce yourselves? I've no idea how some of you got here...
