So I currently have a "professional" over trying to fix my computer, he's done everything from googling the problem (LMFAO) to formatting. He has no idea what's wrong.

What I did: I recently upgraded my hard drive to an SSD, installed windows 7, and installed an ethernet driver.

What's wrong with it: It won't load certain webpages, for example, ninemsn, skype. & it also won't download certain things, namely Steam. So basically it's being racist to certain things.

I need help ASAP!
I live in the Frankston area.

Reset your TCP/IP stack configuration:
start -> command prompt -> run as an admin (right click to select this option) -> type "netsh ip int reset" (or maybe it's netsh int ip reset), then press enter. If the first doesn't work, try the second. It wont hurt anything to put the wrong one in. Reboot.

Then, if that doesn't work, try changing the "MTU" of your network card to 1400. Follow this link, put '1400' in place of nnnn in the command: http://networking.nitecruzr.net/2007/11/se...dows-vista.html

Then, if that doesn't work, go to device manager, delete the network card, reboot. The system will re-detect the card and re-install the driver again, resetting any potentially broken driver settings.
