seeing this thread revive, I'm going to but in too.
not with an answer though I'm afraid, another question:
now then, this here Lappy used to be wireless, but it isn't any longer, I know not why. Has been that way for a while now and I have coped with the old ethernet conection. But I'm getting a little fed up now.
it appears my router is all in working order, though it cannot detect a wireless card in the lappy.
there used to be one... it worked!
where the wireless 'switch' is, now shows an orange light, neverto go blue in the good old days.
anyone have an incling as to how a wireless card can evaporate like that?

Hi I hope this thread is still active as lots of people seem to have had their techie issues resolved.
I have posted my problem in the chatroom forum but it was before I found this thread so apologies in advance.
My problem relates to the chatroom and here goes,
I have no probs entering chat, however after a short period of time (anything from 30 secs to 5 mins) the page freezes
You dont even notice anything has happened, it is just as if people have gone quiet and the flow of chat has stopped.
The emoticons still roll around, my cursor moves, I can check out profiles etc, at first I thought it was lag, then I realised I couldnt change my status from online to busy/idle etc and if i typed and pressed enter then nothing appeared.
To resolve this I simply change to another room on the same server and back to the original room, trouble is by the time I have said "Hello" again, I am back to square one and frozen again.
If I do pop a cam on wether my own or another users then I am guaranted it will freeze in seconds.
I have the latest version of flash, have no other programs opened I have changed to IE 8 & installed service pack 3 (I'm using XP)
I have deleted temp/cookies etc
cleaned up, defraged etc
The only thing I can think of is wireless internet (I am using 3)
I have absolutely no other problems on this site or any others including other chatrooms.
I would be so so very grateful if anyone can help me put an end to this.
Thanks In Advance
