It didnt work either sirmile, but thank you.
We decided to get a brand new computer. It has vista. I set it up and get this...it has the red X on the network symbol (GAHHHHHHH).
I can still plug another computer into the same ethernet cable and connect just fine, so maybe I just set up the network on it wrong? It keeps wanting to dial a connection.
Problem is I don't know vista too well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
