    PL, just wipe the whole hard drive and start over.*








    *How do you wipe a hard drive you ask? Well submerge the whole computer in warm water with Dawn dishsoap. Make sure to not have plugged in unless you are a Montana football player as they have built up a tolerance to electricity.

    You may be better off getting a new router...or if you modem is older switch out for a wireless modem and skip the router.

    I would really love to get my computer broadcast to be shown on my tv, like when some of these other playoff games are on ESPN3. I went to radio shack and all i got was a dumb look, really ??? So at any rate i have a set top box on my tv, and it is the old style with just the coax cable input, is there any way to do this ? any help would be appreciated. Signed Computer Idiot Bisonfan1

    You'll need to find what kind of Video/Audio output options you have coming out your PC first (if any) but regardless you'll more than likely need to buy an RF Modulator ($20) in order to use a coax connection on a TV.

    Edit: found this website that might help you http://hookpctotv.com/

    Yeah, likely excuse. As soon as you get the hook up we wont see you at home games anymore. You will just be sitting back at home sipping your home made cheap lattes watching the Bison on TV.
