VISTA SP1 Snag

Hi all

Just installed Service Pack 1 on an HP laptop. The Wireless connection is working, it's connected to the router and to the net but...

Internet Explorer is unable to display any web-pages! I've searched through Microsofts troubleshooters etc etc, no joy.

Anybody got any idea how to fix it?

(I can't use a restore point as SP1 seems to have set the only available point at the time it was installed!)

Cheers

ComJam,

Has your internet explorer got stuck in offline mode?

To check this go to the file menu and second from bottom option should be work online.

Another thing to check i whether you can navigate to your routers built in web page - usually http://192.168.1.1 or http://192.168.2.1 - if it can then it sounds like it could be a DNS issue - come back and let us know.

Cheers
