Windows update error
-
Finally i can log in again.I resetted the router and modem but found out i forgot my password.
Then got to call up singnet to retrieve.
After reset the modem and router,still like that leh.Really headache..
I took out the network cable for the new computer,meaning like what it was before only using the old computer but still like that.. -
How about trying this:
1. Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
2. Double click on your network.
3. Under This connection uses the following items, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Click on Properties.
4. Select Use the following DNS servers.
5. Type in the following IP addresses:
165.21.83.88
165.21.100.88
6. Click OK twice to apply the settings.
You will also need to set a static IP address in order to use the DNS server option.
Usually the address is 192.168.1.X
Gateway is 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask is 255.255.255.0
If you are unsure, do this:
1. Start > Run and type in cmd and press Enter.
2. Type in ipconfig and press Enter.
Enter the details as what ipconfig tells you. -

sis,i have another problem.
I am using a 7300GT graphic card.Everything works fine except for windows media player.Whenever i play a video or DVD using media player,the whole picture is purplish in colour.May i know what are the settings i can do to remove the purplish colour? -
Do you have the necessary codecs?
-
Sorry but whats codec?
-
The term codec is also an acronym that stands for "compression/decompression." A codec is an algorithm, or specialized computer program, that reduces the number of bytes consumed by large files and programs.

In order to minimize the amount of storage space required for a complicated file, such as a video, compression is used. Compression works by eliminating redundancies in data. Compression can be done for any kind of file, including text, programs, images, audio, video, and virtual reality (VR). Compression can reduce the size of a file by a factor of 100 or more in some cases. For example, a 15-megabyte video might be reduced to 150 kilobytes. The uncompressed file would be far too large to download from the Web in a reasonable length of time, but the compressed file could usually be downloaded in a few seconds. For viewing, a decompression algorithm, which "undoes" the compression, would have to be used.
There are numerous standard codec schemes. Some are used mainly to minimize file transfer time, and are employed on the Internet. Others are intended to maximize the data that can be stored in a given amount of disk space, or on a CD-ROM.
Codecs are used in many popular Internet products, including QuickTime, Netmeeting, Cu-Seeme, and VDOphone. -
I see..So how would i know if i had the right codec?
-
I downloaded the codec installer and installed all available codecs aldy but still cant.
Funny thing is i tried using Nero player to play the DVD and it works fine.But not on windows media player.Why? -
Still cannot leh..What should i do?
-
No idea. Try setting WMP as your default player instead of Nero...
