Vista Question

[den]

Okay, all you clever geeks, I have a problem.


New Toshiba laptop with Vista. Want to connect it to the office network (LAN And/Or Wireless) Can see the network, can't connect. Any idea how to do this? How do I change the Workgroup? In XP there is an option to connect to the Internet via a connection that is always on. Where is that in VISTA?

How the hell do you OPERATE Vista, anyway. It seems to work on a need-to-know system that the user doesn't need to know.

oh yeah. Company laptop, under warranty, cheap, came with no disks apart from a restore CD. As much as I would like to "downgrade" the OS, I can't. Plus, I get to use Vista and learn all its poxy tricks on someone else's computer.

"get to" is such an unfortunate choice of words.

And if it's Vista Business, all you need is an XP Pro CD. Any XP Pro CD.

But yeah.
