Old laptop help (getting online)
    #5251797 - 02/01/06 04:21 PM (18 years, 3 months ago)

I picked up another old IMB Thinkpad(560) for 20$ the other day to replace one that was fatally fucked from someone spilling a large cup of coffee on it....

Anyway....the person i bought it from has windoze '95 on it(actually boots up and runs pretty quick) and used it to access online and do small programming things....so theres really nothing on it.....

I also got the ethernet pcmia card(netgear) he used with it......

now my question: how the hell do i get it to recognize my network...

i plug in the cat5 cable from my router and turn on the comp....it appears to recognize the card properly....the lights on the card indicate an active connection.....

but i open up internet explorer and nothing.......

any ideas?

..............

"MAN! You know there aint no such thing as left over crack!"

Where the hell did you get a working laptop for $20? I'm so jealous!

I can't pick up a working laptop for anything less than about ?100 ($200) - even prehistoric ones.

Yeah, I'd love it, but I think postage would be a killer trans-atlantic (I'm in the UK)

shit is so overpriced here
