By the way i would just like to thank you for helping me so MUCH so far, and for being so dang PATIENT with me. Reading back through the posts, i can see that i've been a little difficult to work with, and i'm sorry about that... But anyway thanks so much for helpin me, you dont know how much it means to me I take it you're logged into the computer under the Administrator account, and connected to the internet?

Have you had a read of the Microsoft Help and Support regards ICS? (Go to the computer that you can check ICS, and click the blue text).Yes, I am connected to the internet and I am on the Administrator account. No I have not read the Microsoft Help and Support but I will. ThanksIt'd be a shame to not get this working/if it couldn't work.

Sorry if I've failed you...but until you give up I'll try to keep helping.Nah you haven't failed me, I wouldn't have ever GOTTEN this far by myself. And i'm not GIVING up yet either oh and i did read the help and support thing but it didnt really help any... so, what now? Maybe it's just impossible... with this computer anyway. do we give up or what? Sorry, been busy solving some of my own problems of late.

Has the blue-tooth dongle got a phone number for techie support? Might be worth a cheeky phone call to see if they can help set it up.Thanks, that's a good idea... I'll look for a number and I might call and ASK them about it
