Am having grief with one of our pc's...
Its a dell laptop running xp pro and it connects to the web normally via google chrome and a wireless connection...
The web access is playing up on it, the router seems fine, this pc works cool on it as does my works laptop via wireless...
If I disable the wireless on the laptop and then reactivate it it will find one maybe 2 web pages before coming up with error 105 (net name not resolved) Refresh it and it comes up the same again... but if I disable the wireless connection and then reactive it and refresh it will normally find the page and maybe the next one before hanging up again...
Have checked everything that I know of (not much admittedly)....
Can anyone help before I put a hammer through it...???

i agree google chrome is somewhat crap ,, i use Opera web browser because personally i like it better than fire fox and agen i agree registry cleaner will help or download ccleaner which will get rid of your junk and there is all so a registry clean option for missing MUI information or corrupted keys
If life hands you a lemon,,,,, Quickly grab it and throw it at someone!!

Could be a pain to do, but it will eliminate one problem. Can you plug it into your router with an ethernet cable and switch off the wireless. Give that a try. If everything works then your problem lies with the wireless connection only, not the net connection or browser, or any other settings.
Traffic lights in London are just rough guidelines

I'm impressed... Nobody's asked "have you changed anything" yet, heh. Seriously though, have you perhaps used Microsoft Update to install any patches onto Windows? I don't use Chrome on my systems, am a Firefox man, but I'm more inclined to think that the problem lies with a setting somewhere in the properties of the wireless connection. Try this to see if it helps - I'll admit k pinched it from elsewhere, but that's cos I'm on my iPhone, heh.
Okay, on the computer with the problems: Click Start Click Control Panel Click Network Connections Right-click on Wireless Network Connection Click Properties Click the General Tab Click Internet Protocol or Internet Protocol v4 in the "This connection uses the following items" box (keep the checkbox checked). Click the Properties button. Click the circle next to "Obtain an IP address automatically" Click the circle next to "Obtain DNS server address automatically" Click Ok Click OK Restart the computer and see if this fixed the problem.
Worth a try, cos it might just do the trick, and won't break anything else if not.

Its not working with ethernet cable, tried that before posting, but couldnt get it to work with ethernet cable months ago when I had a wireless frequency clash with the cctv...(have tried it with cctv off as well).. Will try the other stuff and then select a suitable size hammer if it doesnt work... EDIT>>>> All working again now...dunno what it was but ran pirisoft c-cleaner and seems to be ok now...

i could giv u perfect optimizer 5.0 with working serial or uniblue powersuite but with uniblue u have to go in and manually edit your registry to install the crack to get it working fully as many have said already ^^ up there... it could be a number of things u have to do to fix this its all about trial n error without a hammer lol does the ethernet (RJ45) cable even connect when u plug it in? if not it could either be incorrect drivers or a faulty network card regarding resetting the tcp/ip - there is a netstat command u run from dos but i cant remember the full command to reset it but im sure u could google it. also i think dell systems prefer to let them manage wireless connections rather than micro$oft dont forget you can always reformat it and start from scratch if stuck OOPS - only read u got it fixed
