I have Dell desktop with windows vista home premium 64 bit sp1 installed on it.
I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled this OS. When I set up a Ethernet connection to my cable dsl; I get a message that says something is wrong with my Ethernet software or hardware. Update manager says no update necessary current install is fine. The only way I can connect to Internet with this PC is to use my boot CD with Ubuntu 10.04 on it. that is how I was able to write this note to ask for help.
What do I do to rectify this situation?
Can a solution be be downloaded through Ubuntu and installed on vista?
Any other suggestions?
I only have a Windows OS so I can use IE 8. I need it to report my on-line work. If there was an EASY way to run IE 8 on Ubuntu I would not have to worry about fixing my vista.
Thank you all for any and all help you can suggest,
