I HATE MY COMPUTER!!!!!
So I reinstalle windows on my computer yesterday. No reformatting or anything, just a repair. Yeah, I think it's more screwed up than ever. It worked fine last night, but today THERE'S NO NETWORK CONNECTION!!!!!!! Everything's good on the hardware level. I tried the home networking wizard a dozen times. If I ping it from another computer then only one or two packets get through, and vice versa when pinging another computer from it. So yeah . . . no internet connection to get updates or online help . . . so I'm stealing my brother's computer. Yeah, this sucks.
