Hi,

I'm pretty dumb with this stuff so please make any responses so a 3 year old will understand.

The problem - For some years I have used a desktop and connected to the internet using Virgin broadband modem and USB connection. Last week purchased a Satellite C660D installed the Windows 7 os supplied and tried to connect with my modem but have failed miserably.

I keep getting error 651 message but don't understand why.
I am using an ethernet connection (because my friend does on their laptop) and tried the cable on their system and it worked just fine so I don't think it is that.

If somebody is kind enough to explain what I have to do, will I be able to keep this desktop connected to the internet with the usb and connect the laptop with an ethernet at the same time so I can read the instructions while I go or will I have to print off the instructions and disconnect the desktop before trying the laptop again? Yes I am that dumb and I'm not even blonde, lol

Thanks in advance for anyone with the patience to try to assist me.
