can anyone see where I'm going wrong?(LW+Vista)
 

hi all, first post and obviously a bit thick as i can't get limewire to work on my new laptop. cut and paste from another thread to ses if you
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)

* vista home premium


2. What firewalls you have?

*no idea, had norton but uninstalled it

3. How much ram?

*1.1gb free of 5.11gb - does that answer that?

4. Hard Disk space available?

*56.5gb free of 69.4gb - again not sure if that answers that - I'm a bit blonde!


5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)

* broadband

6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?

*Modem speedtouch 330

7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)?

* home


8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.

*Lw 4.8.1 and java 1.6.0_01


9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)?

* Tesco

10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there?

* says it works!


11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.

* no


12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.

* I've been running it succesfully on an old laptop for months, windows 2000

13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?

* can't even see a blue globe!


help I'm a world without music!

bumping!
