    Have to admit I haven’t been in your situation..; similar – but not the same… However this post (the first response):

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/i…

    offers a possible avenue of investigation – worth to consider with regard to determining the “current” ip address of your router…

    The first response suggests that in the case under discussion the router’s (default) ip address (and thus the gateway) may have changed…; thus no connection. Note the use of ipconfig from the cmd line on (in this case) “your” computer, to determine what the gateway is currently – as that is what the router’s address will be at this time (if it’s working). It may be (for whatever reasons) your router’s ip address is not what the Trend default says it ought to be?

    While it’s not your exact situation.. it may be useful to check as per that first response details?

    Long shots…

    I know it sounds very basic… but what indicator lights are there on it?

    Days were when there was an indicator light to say:

    it was powered up OK;

    one to say the dsl service was actually “there” – but not necessarily active/enabled in terms of your specific account (meaning the (usually) PPoE handshake hadn’t occurred yet;

    and a specific light for PPoE indication – that the handshake for your account is OK.

    Generally these days the indicators for dsl and PPoE are combined – for the price of an LED; at least that’s my current experience/observation. Thus one may not really know quite what is going on when things don’t work…

    So – are you sure your dsl service is actually there; that it is actually incoming; that if tested appropriately it will be found to be there?

  3. You generally can't swap HDDs from one computer to another due to different hardware configurations. That has nothing to do with the beep codes but it's something you need to be aware of.

    You generally can’t swap HDDs from one computer to another due to different hardware configurations. That has nothing to do with the beep codes but it’s something you need to be aware of. Even if you get it to boot successfully without the beeps, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to get into Windows.

    As for the beeps, it would help if you’d supply the model/model number of the eMachines PC you’re working with. Bad RAM, poorly seated RAM, or a poorly seated graphics card are common causes of beeping. And if the beeps are 3 long rather than 3 short, make sure the keyboard is plugged in securely.

    So you seem to be saying that you get the message about the drive not being found then the ‘press F1 to continue or F2 to enter setup’ or words to that effect. So you press F1 and it goes ahead and boots into windows?

    If that’s the case you must have a SATA drive specified in bios setup that’s not there and windows is on another drive that is there.

    I’m not familiar with every piddly-ass bios out there and I don’t know what hardware you have or how its connected so I can only give general advice. That advice is to go into bios setup and make sure the drive(s) are configured properly. You may need the manual for that. If you don’t have it it should be available for download on the Dell support page for your model.

    As I mentioned, there’s usually a bios ‘default setting’ you can enable that will choose the settings most likely to work. That may be all you need to do.

    One thing that can cause bios setup to lose its settings is if the motherboard battery is weak. When you get into windows check the date and time. If they’re way off it’s probably the battery. When that happens you change the battery and then go into bios setup and configure the lost settings.

    very simple, put the CD in the cdrom, double click on my computer (if you don’t get the pop-up) double left click on the cdrom drive, when it opens, click one file, go up to edit and click on select all (they turn blue) right click on any of the blue files, scroll down and click on copy.

    now go to a blank spot on your desktop, right click and select new folder and you can name it. Once it is named right click on the new folder and left click on paste.
    That will put them all into that folder.

    You can also click and drag them from the CD to the folder…google for that,

    it’s real easy.
    Good Luck

    It gets a bit difficult to extract text when we don’t have a consistant starting point. Excel was never built to be a text editor.

    Anyway, if the only two situations you have are the two you’ve described, and they are exactly as you have described, try this:

    Put this in B1 and drag it down:

    =IF(ISERROR(FIND(“@”,A1)),””,A1)

    Select Column B and do a Copy…PasteSpecial…Values to eliminate the formulas and leave the text.

    With Column B still selected, do an Edit…Replace…
    Find what: “Email: ” (no quotes, but include the trailing space)
    Replace with: leave this field empty

    Sort Descending to bring all of the email addresses to the top of Column B.
