So my fucking hard drive crashed in my laptop so I took it out and slaved it on my desktop to try to recover some files and installed a new hard drive.

Question 1: I cant seam to get my wireless card working. It just connects and then like 5 mins later disconnects. I have tried a ton of drivers and still not working. Also it says wireless network 5 now. I dont want it to say that.

Question 2; I downloaded I tunes and the set up file comes up with out and icon looking like a white square and I can access it. Whats up?

Question 3: Has anyone else had a hard drive crash after downloading music off a torrent site?

thanks.

yea.. obviously thats what torrent sights due. have you tried just turning everything off with msconfig and then trying again?? there is a way you can go and find out who or what is stealing your bandwidth via torrent sites.. but i cant remember how. the ultimate solution however, is a macintosh, plus all important music or whatever pics vids backed up on an external harddrive and CDs

Well my hard drive crashed after I left the defragger going over night. I came in in the mourning and it was all fucked up. I took it apart and there was so much dust and lint clogging the fans I think it overheated hard core.

It is fine now windows takes forever to install and I got almost all of my files back but I cant get my wireless card to work right.

I want to delete the previous drivers so it dosent say wireless connection 5 when it starts up. I unstalled the drivers but some how it remembers the installations.
