computer has windows xp, lan connection.
alright, so i installed xp on my computer while at college (valid paid for copy and everything) and xp seemed to set itself up on the net just fine, don't remember having to fuss through anything to get the computer connected.
Now i'm on thanksgiving break, and i brought the computer home so i could do some work, however, the computer will not pick up the new ip address. Even when releasing/renewing the ip address, the computer constantly brings back my school's ip address and won't take the new one it should be getting from my home.
tried fubbing around with all the settings, auto detect is on and all that jazz...just...won't...work.
must...break... "Pain inside is rising. I am the Fallen One. A figure in an old game. No jokers on my side. I've plunged into missery, i've turned out the light and murderd the dawn"
