Vista Connection Problems Please Help I've had LimeWire on this computer before and I never had any problems with it, and I had Windows Live OneCare w/ it's firewall on and had Windows Firewall off and LimeWire worked great. But I had to do a recovery on the HP Laptop cause it was very slow and occasionally had the blue screen of death, but anyways, I read to leave LimeWire on for a long time and the connection would get stronger I have had it on for the last 2 days and I still only see the single small green bar, My ISP doesn't block UPnP, My Linksys Wireless Router is configured for UPnP , I have tried the whole proxy thing that didn't work, I allowed LimeWire through the firewall, then I tried turning the firewall off all together, I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it several times, Java is up to date, my incoming and outgoing protocols are set on the firewall, I completely uninstalled Norton when it was put back on from the recovery, I completely uninstalled Windows Live OneCare, I tried deleting the directory for .LimeWire but I couldnt figure out what the dude was talking about cause on Vista the isn't a C:/Documents and Settings/User Name/.LimeWire ( and blah blah delete the directory) the only thing there is Start/Computer/C:/User/your user name/ there is a LimeWire file but it isn't .LimeWire or LimeWire. now when you go Start/Computer/C:/users/your user file/AppData/Roaming/ but there still is no (.) anywhere in the LimeWire file title ( so I have no clue at all).
I need to know if anyone knows of any other program that interferes with LimeWire? I've tried just about everything on here and nothing has worked.
Here is some more info just in case
HP dv6000 laptop with Windows Vista Home Basic
Intel Centrino Duo 2.0 ghz 1 gb ram 80gb hdd
linksys wireless router ISP: Atlantic BB High Speed Cable.
LIMEWIRE HAS WORKED BEFORE WITH CURRENT SET UP but There maybe another program on here that i removed before and that is why it worked then but because it is there it doesn't work now.
Any Help is greatly appreciated. |
