Compared to Windows XP, Vista uses a slightly different DHCP protocol variant that is not recognized by some routers.

The solution is here:

Windows Vista cannot obtain an IP address from certain routers or from certain non-Microsoft DHCP servers

Okay, I recently reformatted my PC, because I'm giving it to someone else. I reinstalled XP no problem, I got a few updates downloaded through Windows Update, but now the Windows Update webpage won't even load, and the Microsoft Update page only seems to load after a couple tries. And even when it does, I get an error 0x8024402C half the time. The other half of the time, I get it to load up, but it won't download SP2.

When I click on a desktop icon sometimes the dial up box comes up and has to be clicked on to connect even 'though I am already connected by broadband. Any thoughts?

i am connected to internet through direct ISP ethernet cable. i get "limited access" error in listen port, when i use p2p programs, due to which upload/ download rate is very low, while my usual net speed browsing is decent.

request help.

In my system tray the yellow shield icon is telling me an update is being downloaded. Has said 64% in the tool tip for days. I've restarted a number of times, but it's still there. What can I do to clear this?

Thanks
