Help! I replaced a hard drive on an old computer and restored the original programs and everything is fine until I get on the internet. When I go to any site, things are not laid out right. When I go to Microsoft.com and click on "downloads" I get a message "the required internet protocol is not installed".
The old Compaq computer has Windows 95 and IE 4.4 and I'm using TCP/IP. I can't download a newer version of IE because of the protocol error. I've swapped monitors & drivers with my newer computer and I still have the same problem with the old computer.
I've set up my old computer exactly the same as the computer I'm typing on now but the problem persists.
I believe the problem may be my old Windows 95 or IE version. I may borrow a copy of Windows 98 (for test purposes only) and install it and see if that corrects the problem.
Does anybody else have any ideas?
