I am hating Vista right now...I bought a computer from Frys and I brougt it
home and it connected to the internet just fine. Sometime later it decided to lose sight of the network altogether. I have vista 32bit. My video card is an nVidia nForce Networking Controller. The driver currently on there is nvm60x32.sys. After doing some google searching I have found that I am not the only idiot who decided to try vista out and is having the same problem. I would like to know how to fix this...God Vista is annoying. |

I have just encountered this problem after having this laptop for 1.5 years. All of a sudden the internet connection is not found. (I have wireless thru a linksys wireless router). The driver is nvm60x32 but I can't seem to figure out a way to re-load it without doing a full format. If anyone can help me, please advise!!! ![]() -- marcie Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |

Yes the device (NVIDIA nforce Networking Controller) is enabled and in Device Manager. I don't know if there are any key combinations but the switch is in the on position but shows a yellow light (I think before when it worked it was blue or red) -- marcie Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com |
