I have a toshiba portege 3110ct with windows 2000 on it using a PCMCIA ethernet adapter for a network card. This computer was given to me and used to have zone alarm installed on it, so I had to remove every trace of that before i could even get the stinkin thing online. i finally got it, and now AIM works fine, and firefox works fine for about the first 20 min, then firefox acts like it cant get a connection, however aim will still work, no matter what. its like theres something blocking both firefox's and IE's access to the internet. if i restart, it will work fine for the first 20 minutes again. There are no additional processes coming up and everything is disabled in msconfig. Im really stumped on this one.
Also does anyone have any ideas on how I could reformat this thing. It has NO internal floppy, NO internal CD rom and no other boot devices that will work without windows. So i really cant do anything to reformat and reinstall.
Thanks!
