vista in all its brilliance (sarcasm much)
Hi I have a little problem, well kind of a big one. i have a toshiba satallite pro a200, which until about a week ago was running XP, i have had it for about 9 months and its managed to fry 2 mobos and a perfectly good sata hard drive, upon being sent back from toshiba for the 2nd time I found that they had given me vista buisness adition, which in its self is survivable, but i installed the updates a day or to ago and now the retched thing will not update and will not connect wirelessly to the network, it shows the network, identifies its there, shows full signal and then has a fit and decides it doesnt exist, this wasnt a major issue until i checked the updates to find that there is an update for my card however it is incapable of downloading the update of any kind, im kind of up chocolate creek without a popsicle stick if you catch my drift. the dreaded machine has caused more time than stress than i ever thougt possible. I am slowly saving to by myself a mac (an OS that works) however this is going to take time and i need a way to sort this out.
any help would be greatly appreciated toshiba as per usual are about as helpful as a ram card in a beer can.
Many thanks
ToM

(From a JohnWill post)

TCP/IP stack repair options for use with Vista.

Start, Programs\Accessories and right click on Command Prompt, select "Run as Administrator" to open a command prompt.

Reset WINSOCK entries to installation defaults: netsh winsock reset catalog

Reset IPv4 TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log

Reset IPv6 TCP/IP stack to installation defaults. netsh int ipv6 reset reset.log

Reboot the machine.
