My laptop had Antivirus '08 on it and to get rid of it i could re-install windows vista. but now my ethernet controller dosn't work and it is quite annoying because i wanted to try mirror's edge before i buy.

Can anyone give me a free solution?

noonononono, i am talking about how to get back my ethernet drivers on my Hp Pavilion dv6500 cto Notebook PC (now that's a mouthfull.)

[NintendoNerds]

Where did they go? What does the device manager say..are they gone gone or do they have errors? The drivers...at any rate should be on your D: partition.

Go to www.hp.com
click drivers
type in the name of your computer
Select the operating system
Select the network driver and download and install it.

I think Vista is both faster and more secure than XP.

Hopefully Tenser will learn from this. You don't break a combo without a funny picture.

Vista is much better than XP. Windows is currently the best OS for the average home user. Linux is catching up fast and in a couple years will probably be the best for the average home user. Especially if MS takes another 5 years to release their next version.

Yeah I'm just being a jerk about it. I love Microsoft, I'm just disappointed with how Vista was launched. Buggy and not casual user friendly. Kinda the opposite of the previous operating systems. I thought the point of Windows is being user friendly?

ive got vista and the only design flaw is that its just too top heavy, too much stuff using up your rescources, other than that no complaints

[Kong]

You can turn most of that off - I do.

Thank you kong, i will air mail you a million cookies.[br]Posted on: December 07, 2008, 07:48:13 PM_________________________________________________s orry for the bump, i have a new problem. my wife bought a new pc and installed windows xp on it. it's a custom alienware and it can run crysis and farcry without a hitch. but, for some reason, when i play re4 it lags and goes slowly. i tried crysis right after, it worked.

Sorry, new games aren't my area of expertise. I do know that Alienware's selling point is they should be capable of playing most games.

crysis and far cry are extremely high tech, and require atleast 2gbs ram. my pc has 6.re4 only takes 256mb ram.
