every time i go to set up a new internet connection, this is what goes down:
1) i start the wizard and begin setup by selecting the connect to the internet option.
2) i select "set up my connection manually"
3) then i get this BS:
i have a modem, and it works just fine. there are no conflicts or other hardware errors as far as diagnostics has told me. i even connected to my isp with hyperterminal, just to make sure everything worked.
its been like this fresh out of the box. i installed a new hard drive, formatted it, installed windows, and bam, no internet. i did have a mobo driver error and had to reformat and reinstall windows, but i fixed that and i wouldnt think that would have anything to do with this.
