Hi, I have a fast ADSL connection and a Windows XP Professional (version 2002) OS on my desktop PC. Due to a virus I caught I had to format the windows partition and reinstall all the drivers and stuff. Everything seems to work fine except for the internet. It's not that I don't have any connection but it is extremely slow, I cannot connect at all to some specific sites (such as www.blue-whitegt.com) and after a while it's completely lost. I tried updating all the drivers of my hardware, I installed the windows service pack 3, I intalled the newest java console, I checked my rooter settings (which of course are the same as they were before the format), I even turned windows firewall completely off. Nothing worked.. Any ideas?? PS It has nothing to do with my connection or my ISP since I have another PC with Windows Vista Basic which connects perfectly fine and with good speed too. I don't know if that helps at all but here is my PC Configuration: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ 2.21GHz MOTHERBOARD: ASUS K8N-E Deluxe RAM: 2xDDR2 512MB/400 Kingston HD IDE: WD 200GB JD SATA VIDEOCARD: VGA PixelView FX6600GT 128MB TV SOUNDCARD: SB Audigy 2 ZS 7.1 DVD: DVD SONY 16X DVD-R/W: NEC 3500 FD: FDD Drive 1.44 TV: TV Studio Pinnacle Pro Radio POWER SUPPLY: 450 Watt UPS: UPS Selec ULA75R and my BIOS version is: American Megatrends Inc. v1005.002 Thanks in advance!!
