dyna Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 alright, so im over at my friends house tonight and we hop on his desktop to look up a few things. He goes to search google and google just sits there. We tried again, it just sits there waiting. so then we go to check his hotmail account. He logs in, and it just stops at the login. He can log in but it just stays on the white screen. He can access anything he wants on his laptop, but the desktop won't allow him to search google. He has this crappy DSL service from frontiernet but i don't see how that would stop him from googling. also, we have tried both IE and Firefox ( both with default settings ). What can i do? Quote
Sparda Posted July 2, 2008 Posted July 2, 2008 we have tried both IE and Firefox ( both with default settings ). What can i do? Try opera. Try a Ubuntu Live disk. Try trace routing the sites that cause problems. Try a different DNS server. Quote
thisiam Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 try to ping those sites or any other command to prove out the connection try sites with the IP check firewall settings if one is set test sites with different computer. Quote
