Most drivers included with vista do not support your original hardware. In vista, you can only use its own connector to surf the Internet, and nothing else works, so you have no choice. If you can't, you can't, because VISTA is not a sound version now.
I suggest you use xp. I just installed it. The picture is beautiful, but the effect is not good
1. takes up the space of disk c 10G, which is too big!
2. The internet interface is not easy to use, and the use of network dialing software is not supported!
3. It requires a high graphics card and does not support old cards. According to its own driver, the effect of 1024X768 is basically better than XP.
3. It comes with many drivers, but there is no sound card driver, so you need to install AC`97.
4. It doesn't support all hardware drivers of systems below vista, and there are not many drivers that support it on the market now.
5. There are many pirated softwares in daily life that it doesn't support (such as the games we often play).
6. In modern society, there are still many public service networks that do not support vista, which is very inconvenient.
In short, vista has many shortcomings, and it is not much better than xp. At present, xp is still being used, and it will be installed when vista develops into a mature form in two years! There are too many people who don't support it now, so don't be mice in a hurry!
VISTA, a new generation of Microsoft operating system, as a substitute for Windows XP, will definitely occupy the general consumer market in the future, and the number of consulting users will also increase day by day. How to realize ADSL PPPOE dialing under Vista? Let's take a look at the setting method.
Step 1: We click the Windows window button in the lower left corner, which is similar to the "Start" we used in the system before, and then select "Network" to set up network-related information.
Step 2: Click on "Network and * * * Enjoy Center" above, which is the core of VISTA network settings.
Step 3: After entering the "Network and * * * Enjoy Center", we can add network connection through "Set Connection or Network" on the left. Like XP system, VISTA will start the network setup wizard to complete the network configuration.
Step 4: First, select a connection option. If our home network accesses the Internet through ADSL line, we choose the first scheme-connecting to the Internet and setting up wireless, broadband or dial-up connection. Click the Next button to continue.
Step 5: The system will automatically detect your network settings. If you use IP to access the Internet through a local area network, VISTA will automatically set your network parameters. However, since you are surfing the Internet through ADSL, you should dial PPPOE. So in the next "How do you connect" window, we select "Broadband PPPOE, use DSL or cable connection, user name and password".
Step 6: Then follow the wizard "Type the information provided by your ISP", including user name, password, etc.
Step 7: After setting up, we add a PPPOE dialer and return to the "Network and * * * Enjoy Center" again. We clicked "Manage Network Connections" on the left.
Step 8: In the network connection, we will see the ADSL broadband connection just added and the local connection of the network card itself.
Step 9: Double-click the broadband connection icon, and we will start the ADSL dialing window. Everything here is the same as under XP. Click the "Connect" button, and you can surf the Internet successfully through ADSL line.
