Solve : I can't load any web pages! Please advice needed!?

Answer»

I have a Dell Dimension 8400 with windows xp. 2.5gb memory, Intel (R) Pentium (R) 4 cpu 3.40ghz.
motherboard model is Dell 0J3492. Started about a month ago, getting an ERROR message when logging on computer that the system battery voltage was low, started having problem with IE not being able to display web page and when it did, loading slow. I just put a new cmos battery in 2 days ago, now i get an message when turning on computer, that the FLOPPY diskette failed, and now either the pages will not load (ie error, cant view page) or it takes forever to load a page, then if i click a link on the page, it doesn't load and i get the cant view page error again..I have done system restore, cleaned cache, cookies, etc and even reset IE. I don't know what else to do, especially if i cant get on the internet..Please any help would be appreciated.Quote from: pam5733 on March 09, 2009, 12:25:27 PM

hi im terry, have checked the cables in side just in case any are loose and then go into bios setup and load Default bios setup and save and exit. If doesnt help then email me more info _________yahoo.co.uk. Good Luck

email ADDY removed to prevent SPAMthanks for trying to help. i did that and now i cant get ie to even open, my screen freezes, it gets to loading your personal settings and freezes.....i don't know what to do. guess i will have to take it to someone to fix it..even though i really don't want too. just took it to the geek squad back in november, cost me $300 to fix it because i had a virus....
But thankyou for trying to help me.

I hope, you're not planning to go to those blood suckers anymore....

Did you try Firefox?I hope, you're not planning to go to those blood suckers anymore...
NO WAY!! I was so upset with them, it was not funny!!
And yes i have tried ff. Nothing. I finally booted from safe mode, did the dell diagnostic test, everything passed..
I guess what i am going to do is call Dell (uhggg), i don't know what else to do and i need someone who can i guess look inside my computer and fix it...and they can do that thing where they can take control of my computer..but thanks for the post, i appreciate the help...

PamIs your Dell still under warranty?

Are all your problems tied up to internet issues?Thanks for all of your help and advice...I am not computer savvy as FAR as fixing software, registry problems, but i fixed this computer (that i am typing on) YEAH!!!!!!! With your advise and alot or reading. I am sooooo excited that my computer is working again. Thanks again.
