Thanks to all who've suggested fixes. I've tried them, to no avail. Still cannot even manually connect to http://127.0.0.1:9000/ ("Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:9000"; "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".). Yet all other computer functions are normal, including manual loading of other URL's.
I'm wondering if it's this rotten Vista x64 OS. It's been failing updates for a while, and my skills are insufficient to fix it; nor do I think I should spend that amount of time trying to make up for MS being out of control. Soooo, although this 2-yo ASUS 2.0Ghz/4GB laptop is still useful, I've ordered a new desktop with Windows 7 (altho that product too is already showing flaws in blogs.) Once I have that working and stable, hopefully with SBS up again, I'm gonna wipe/install W7 on the laptop. I'm vaguely starting to think Mac or Ubuntu, too. Or maybe Google will take a serious run at Windows. Mac could've OWNED the PC market, if they hadn't been so pricey, especially at the 80's-90's starting point. Again, thanks for your consideration. -- [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [email protected]'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42832 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84679 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
