My computer has been acting weird lately. I use the Zune marketplace and Playon for my PS3 and whenever I try to sign in or use the programs they say that they cannot connect to the server or the bandwidth is low even though I’m getting 3mps. I’ve tried all of the troubleshooting that various tech support people have walked me through like allowing the programs on my AVG and even getting rid of it completely but no luck. I can use the internet just fine and have run all the virus, spyware, and malware programs I have and like normal everything comes out clean. My computer did do something weird the other day though, it wouldn’t get on the internet but then I got rid of my proxy and it was fine again but my programs still don’t work. I’ve also called my ISP and there’s nothing wrong with the line but whenever I use AT&T’s self support tool it says that there is a problem with my connection even though it doesn’t show it on their end. It also says that my line state, DSL state, and Ethernet status is down whatever that means. I am really bad with computers and would appreciate any help y’all can give,
Thanks!




Even if we tell you what to do, you will not be able to handle it. It would be best to call a technician for home service.
You have no connection.
I can think of several things: – In The Dirt Clods cpu cooler fins (clean once per year) – Dirt Clods in the video card fan (clean once per year) – Dirt Clods caked around the power supply, cheap power supply is over 1 year old and needs to be replaced-expensive power supply is over 3 years old and needs to be replacedyou would be amazed at what cleaning will fix. afterwards, [windows-logo-flag-key]-R echo y | chkdsk / f [Enter] then reboot and let chkdsk fix the filesystem. chkdsk should be run if you ever have to power off the computer uncleanly (not using the standard shutdown process). my computer had gotten so bad that after six months I had to reinstall the OS.
