Hello all, it's been a long time since i've posted here.
I just bought a machine for a friend's birthday tomorrow, and i'm trying to get it set up and updated before then. It's an Acer Aspire x3200, specs as follows.
Vista Home Premium
AMD Phenom x3 8400 triple core
4gb ddr2
320 gb SATA hd
geforce 8200
So the main issue here is that I can't get online. 'connect to the internet' tells me i'm online, google responds to ping, and it even found the other computers on my network. I'm using IE, (this thing is fresh out of the box), and i can't access anything. It's directly connected to my Netgear wgr614 v5 router.
The other issue is that when I boot it will hang on the loading screen if I have any USB devices attached. I'm hoping this is something I can resolve with an update or something once I get online, but any thoughts on this would be appreciated as well.
Thanks ahead of time for any help that may be coming.
