Vista Sucks
I just have to post this somewhere, Vista simply just doesn’t work, it breaks all rules of pc troubleshooting. My most recent problem, that caused me to spend hours troubleshooting, and even reinstalling was an error I would get when trying to register PowerDVD, and when trying to sign in to my Zune software.
“You do not appear to be connected to the internet” although I could click the web help, and get right out to the internet.
I am behind a cisco PIX firewall at home, I have no need for a software firewall, so I never turn on the windows firewall. This was actually the problem, once I enabled the firewall, I was able to get out to the internet. HOW DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE!? All computer admins know that all you need to get to the internet is a ip address, and a gateway address to the properly configured router, or firewall connected to the internet, and any device will get out to the internet…. that is unless your running vista I guess…
