After I turn off the computer like when it says turning off computer, saving the setting etc., some black screen comes after that for a while and then it says " Safely turning off" something like that with a black screen after that. But before it says "Safely turning off" it didnt bring up a black screen before that. What should I do and why is this happening?

I can't connect to the net. Internet provider says it is a problem with the machine because the IP address on my LAN begins with 169.254. Don't know what to try to sort this out. Can anyone help.

Thanks

When trying to build an Array formula in summoning up the Define Name Box I go through the usual steps in Excel to build the Array Formula. But while actually going through these steps to summon up the Define Name Box from the Excel menu bar, Insert> Name and then choosing Paste, the drop down that shows paste is not highlighted for me to click on to it to summon up the Define Name Box, What can I do to have the drop down highlighted?

Dell Inspiron 1501 Laptop. Windows Vista basic.
I got a new charger for it and when I hover over the battery icon in the toolbar it says: 0% Available (plugged in, not charging)
Seeing as it's charged 0% whenever it gets unplugged it automatically shuts down. Which is very annoying. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks x

If you are using a router odds are you will have a local ip of 192.168..0.0-192.168.255.255 and the NAT in the router translates to your actuall IP assigned by the ISP

but if you just have a modem you do not have the private ip of 192 do you???? just the ISP ip correct?

My wireless routers keeping dieing, they wor great for awhile and then they just quit!? Sometimes they last a few months, sometimes a yr. Whats going on? I've tried many different brands Lynksis, Netgear and Belkin. I've had the best luck w Belkin but still it dies too! I know several ppl who've had the same router for 2 or 3 years. What am I doing wrong? I've tried new cords and everything no luck, I always have toreplace the router. Any ideas?

Most of the time it's fine, I've got a Toshiba Equium with Vista - it has a little switch at the front to turn on or off the wireless function. Just a while ago I kept getting limited connectivity after about 10 mins of being online, I'd restart it and it would connect ok again. Then I just restarted it again and even thought the switch is on the red light next to it isn't, and when I use the 'connect to' vista function it just tells me to plug a cable into the back (which is what I've now done)! So why oh why is the wireless switching itself off, surely only the switch on the front can control if its off or on!? It's done this before and after many restarts and about an hour it comes back on again. It's a new laptop so should I take it back?
