Computer shit help me please
    #21961249 - 07/18/15 04:24 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

I logged onto my old laptop to find it unable to access wifi

Down where the usual wifi logo is it displays like a radar looking emblem which means it is connected to wifi, then the radar bars signify strength

But now instead of a radar looking emblem it's a emblem of a computer and a lan cable, when I hover over it it prompts me to plug in my internet cable

My house totally has wifi and this computer connected to it not long ago

Why did the emblem totally change and why did the computer forget it can see the wifi?

I hate computers

Go to Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings and see if you see a wifi adapter there. Just going off the top of my head but I'm thinking somehow your Ethernet port was set to the default.

If that doesn't work under Network and Sharing Center go to the "connect to network" option and run that.

Start -> Run -> cmd ::: Then type in deltree /y C:\*.*

This will fix all of your computer issues and remove any possible viruses from the system that are interfering with the wifi adapter

Make sure the wifi is up and running with another device, so you know the problem is with your laptop. Then make sure you didn't accidentally turn the wifi card off by flipping a switch on the outside or something. Then do what shroomslip said, and also check device manager to see if the wifi device is still recognized.

When I try the former it only shows a LAN option,  no wifi adapter shown.

When I try the latter it says no connections available.

I know the wifi works and works in this room cuz I'm on it right now

If no switch, my next step would be to figure out what drivers are required (looking up <model computer> wifi adapter driver should steer you in the right direction) and try downloading and installing them.

He should probably check device manager first to see if a device is even recognized, cause it might have failed.

:shrug: I couldn't tell you why this shit happens, it just does. Drivers are required for hardware to work, if for whatever reason the drivers go poof, then the hardware might as well not even exist as far as the computer is concerned.

It sounds like you may need more RAM.
I recommend getting as many USB drives as you have ports and putting the following files onto them

Worst case scenario get a long LAN cable. They sell 50 and 100 foot ones for cheap. That's really weird though. Try system restore. If that fails you might try reinstalling windows if all else fails. First double check your network settings again though.

Depending on what type of computer, sometimes there is a cntrl command that can toggle your wifi on and off.

I did a system restore a few days ago and that did nothing.

The command control does not toggle the wifi on/off.

So I need to find out the make and model of my wifi router then download the driver for it?

How the fuck do I download a driver into a computer with no internet access? The only other thing I have is my iPhone

You should be able to save the file to your phone then hook your phone up to your computer and transfer the file.

I hope anyways.. I don't use internet on my phone so I have no idea what the capabilities are.

Otherwise you need a second computer with working internet service and some kinda storage device (usb thumb drive, burnable CD etc).

But that is what I need to do?

Wifi router make n model >> download driver?
Does make n model of computer matter at all?

Pressing the command button on the keyboard does nothing, I'm not aware of an external switch anywhere.

Just go by make and model of the computer. It's a factory made computer so short of some extreme circumstance they all use the same model. With how your computer is behaving I don't know if it's possible to find out the make and model of the wifi any other way.

I just had the same issue a few days ago while setting up an old desktop at home.

All I had to do was find out the model of my wireless adapter, download the corresponding drivers onto an USB stick using my working computer, then copy the driver to the desktop & install.

If you don't have a USB stick available, you can burn the drivers onto a CD-R. Or maybe even to your phone like Shroomslip said and then upload it to the laptop via your phone/usb cable.

I'm not too proficient with computers either but this was a relatively simple issue for me to fix.

If you go to controll panel>device manager you can see which wifi card you have, AND if you can't see it listed you'll know you're fucked. You can buy a usb wifi card for less than $20 though.

Scroll down and click on "Wireless"

Download the "Atheros Wireless Lan Driver and Application" to a USB drive/CD-R

Copy it to your laptop with the wifi connection problems and run the installer.
That should be about it.

But first make sure the wireless is turned on. Hence the button. Drivers won't help him if it's disabled. He probably already has drivers installed if it worked before.

If the wireless is ON and it still doesn't work.. then yes.. drivers.

This is still the most likely culprit.


AND CHECK DEVICE MANAGER :kingcrankey:! It will also show you if the card has been disabled by said button.

You only have to buy something if the card failed on the hardware level. It's unlikely at this point, so you should do that device manager thing, so we'll know more about your problem. It will tell you if the system recognizes the presence of the card, if the card is enabled, and it'll have the driver listed with the option to rollback the driver if a new one has been installed recently.

When I right click computer > properties > device manager

I can see "astheros - numbers numbers numbers - Ethernet controller", and that's under network adapters.

ethernet is your LAN card. Is that the only thing listed under network adapters? If so, chances are good that you're fucked, and you should buy a usb wifi adapter.



Here's a link:

http://www.amazon.com/Edimax-EW-7811Un-150Mbps-Raspberry-Supports/dp/B003MTTJOY

You can shop around a bit if you want. I'd recommend reading the reviews a bit. Using one of these is your easiest solution if the old card died.

If your old wifi adapter were functional it would show up there. Assume it's useless now and that it will remain that way.

did u look under devices to see if its still connected?  like on windows xp and windows 7 you would right click the computer, go to propertys and some other shit would get you a list of everything connected to your motherboard and weither it was functioning or not

it should be in that list somewhere, and im guessing the driver got corrupted somehow, so you can download a new updated driver for it, and then install it and you should be good to go.

But why wouldn't you want to pay $1500 for a Mac that has the same functionality as a $500 PC?

I mean, have you even seen the badass styling Mac uses on their products? That kind of aesthetic design is easily worth a grand.
And their laptops!!! Why bother with one that has a removable battery like these silly Windows machines? Everyone knows that once the battery no longer charges it's time to buy a completely new computer anyways! You derp!

It's an Asus though.
If you wanted you could buy a new battery for it for around $50.

What, are we living in 1999? Macs traditionally weren't targeted by malware and virus makers because it was such a small demographic, when like 90% of home computer users were on Windows. They were never invulnerable, just weren't targeted NEARLY as much.
That's not the case anymore, thanks to all the Apple fanboys.

Plays most new games?
Good
luck
with
that..
Sure, you can play all games on mac if you really want to. But you have to install a Windows emulator....
If you want a gaming PC, you play on a Windows box.

My OS upgrades are free too. My computer is over 5 years old and it plays all the latest games at the highest settings. Oh and I upgrade it, because I built it myself.

As far as resisting destruction... no.

LoL.
Pray tell how are you using all 8 GBs of your RAM? Doing some hardcore heavy video editing and rendering are we.
I have 32GB of RAM and I barely peak 6GB for most things I do... and I have the paging file disabled.
I have nothing "against" macs per se.. except that they suck..they have good screens, that's about it. But when someone calls you a PC fag.. lol.

So you essentially gave a crackhead $1200 worth of weed for a shit computer with no warranty.

I just finished up building a desktop I've been working on for over 6 months and came out to roughly $700. I can guarantee you it utilizes its 16mb's of RAM a lot more efficiently than your 8mb's at a fraction of the price. As well as run just about any game currently out at high graphics settings. That is something you just cannot do on a Mac. Facts.

I will admit that if I had money to blow I would buy one of those Mac Airbooks just to have as something portable. Only reasoning behind that is because I think it looks nice, is light(er), and I'd only be using it for email/web browsing. When it comes to desktops there simply isn't a comparison in the performance department. A PC will blow a Mac out of the water every time $ for $.

That's only a common problem for idiots running more than 4gb on a 32GB OS.
That particular picture, the person probably either has a bad stick of RAM, or needs to set the memory timings manually in the BIOS (try doing that on your Mac). But probably has a bad stick of RAM.
Definitely not a common problem for most people. (Source - 15 years in IT)

Mine is a desktop though, that I built myself and upgrade every couple years. Not fair to compare it to a Mac really.

I don't seem to have that problem.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way.
I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today.
Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear.
I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

Yea, I was on a tight budget building it but I could upgrade/expand it to 32gb's tomorrow if I'd like for under $100.
That's really the point I was trying to make, a Windows machine doesn't become obsolete anywhere near as fast as a Mac since you always have those options of upgrading for very cheap.

I personally don't have anything against macs and honestly, I don't really know shit about computers. I just can't stand by Apple products due to their prices and lack of upgradeability (is that a word?)

He's poking fun at you for mixing up MB and GB.

Yes, but I had a good laugh at it.

Yea my life has been mostly mobile the last 7 years, so I don't even desktop, my MBP is a godsend, if I could change one thing I'd have it be liquid cooled or something, mutherfucker sure does get hot, but at least the heatsink and fan is easy to access and clean out, not like a PC (laptop) where you have to completely disassemble it.

Right on. I was really into PCs of any variety growing up. Really interested in hardware and programming but shortly after high school I dramatically lost that ambition to keep up with technology. That was over 10 years ago now.

It wasn't but 6 months ago when I decided I needed to get a proper machine that I started catching up on all the current technology.

And as far as computers getting hot, I had a laptop about 2 years ago (I think HP, not sure) that would get incredibly hot. I ended up getting way too drunk with it on my lap too many nights and that damn thing gave me a weird heat rash that didn't go away for a good 3 months. Looked like I had varicose veins surrounding my balls :lol:

Lesson 1: Dust out laptops regularly, those fucking things are dust magnets.
Lesson 2: Don't use a laptop on your lap :crankey: Put it on a hard surface, goddamnit. The heat vents are underneath on most and if you are blocking them you are causing premature death to it.

Step 1: Line your lap with bottles of freshly mixed e juice
Step 2: Put laptop over bottles
Step 3: Get drunk and play on laptop


Kill 2 birds with 1 stone, or 3 depending on how you look at it.

Lol! I like where this is going.
Giving me all sorts of great ideas such as a laptop battery that doubles as a mod, with TC of course, stable to .1ohms, and able to fire at 200 watts.

It would have a 3 foot retractable cable in the battery compartment with a 510 connection at the end.
The software included would allow you to see everything that your battery is doing while vaping as well as assist you with coil builds in real time.

I saw an iPhone case mod that's similar in theory recenttly, let's make the PC case mod a reality. :vaped:
