I have a strange problem. I can't access my Network and Sharing Center. At
all. I try to open it and it stops responding, then I have to task manager to end it. I use a Netgear USB Adapter to access my internet and it's been working fine until now. It's a strange problem because the Network center icon is still in my tray and it displays the "no connectivity" icon. If I roll over it, it displays "Connection Status: Unknown" and "Server Execution Failed". I can still access the internet from the computer (in fact I'm doing so now), but it runs slower than normal and I don't know what the hell I'm connected to. There are 3 routers in my range and only one of them is mine. I can't get into the center to connect to mine or make sure it's connected to mine and it's just messed up. Any ideas? |

I had that same problem after I did a remote connection to my computer. I could only fix it with a system restore. "TheSarah" wrote: I have a strange problem.

How far back did you have to System Restore? Or do you have any idea why
yours did it? "Sanity" wrote: I had that same problem after I did a remote connection to my computer. I could only fix it with a system restore. "TheSarah" wrote: I have a strange problem.

I had to restore to a week prior to it. I think its just a windows bug that
will hopefully be addressed in SP1. here is a solution I was given, I did it anyways even though I already restored, http://www.chicagotech.net/netforums...pic.php?t=1001 "TheSarah" wrote: How far back did you have to System Restore?

TheSarah, Do you have Aim and did you allow a recent update? Please see this 'fix', if this has happened to you: 'Aim 6.5 and Windows Vista, Server execution failed and Media Player Issues » tek' (http://tinyurl.com/yr38hh) Also, do you have Windows One Care? -- Jacee *MS-MVP Windows-Security 2006 & 2007* Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
