my friend has an hp laptop with windows vista. i went through the whole list
of networking fixes with her and none of them worked. the one involving regedit, the battery saving ones, all of them. her laptop did work for a short period of time at my house, but not at her and not when she initially brought it here. are there any new fixes to try for a problem where the computer can see other computers on the network but the internet.

i just realized there is no edit. i also should have mentioned that i use the
router for 5 other computers, 3 of them wireless 2 wired. and they all work. only her vista laptop can't connect. my vista desktop can connect and the 4 other xp computers can connect. |

A couple things -- first, please see what NDF says about this problem.
(Right-click the network icon in the system tray, and choose Diagnose.) Also, you say that you can see other computers on the network -- are you able to establish connections to them, or is this based only on the status icon?
