My girlfriend and I have wireless at home and we both have laptops. I don't know what I did but I can't get back on the internet. The other computer is fine but mine isn't. When you go to the start button I lost the file that says Connect To. I don't know what I did. My computer says it has nothing to connect to. The other computer doesn't have a problem connecting. Hope you can help.

Hey hitch.

Is this a Windows XP Machine? Have you tried running a System Restore?

Here's some information about that...

Items in blue which are underlined are clickable to give more information about the process

Start the System Restore Utility at a command prompt

1. Restart your computer, and keep tapping F8 during the initial start-up until you get options, select Safe Mode with a Command Prompt then press enter.

2. Log on to your computer with an administrator account or with an account that has administrator credentials.

3. Type the following command at a command prompt, and then press ENTER:

%systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe

4. Follow the instructions that appear on the screen to restore your computer to an earlier state.

Look for the most recent system checkpoint created before the errors to restore from

For additional information about the Safe mode with a command prompt, click 315222 to see a description of the Safe Mode Boot Options in Windows XP
