Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer


is the error notice I get. I have tried reinstalling windows, f-disk, reinstalling internet explorer...messing with the settings, any ideas?

Hi mystery250!

In order to provide you with assistance with this problem, we're going to need to have some information about your system and your Internet Connection. First, I assume you made this post using a different computer. If you able to connect (at least some times) are there pages you can always open and pages you can never get to open?

Can you tell if you're actually connecting to your Internet Service Provider? Is your connection via dial-up, cable, DSL, other?

What Windows operating system are you using?

What version of Internet Explorer are you using? (Click Help/About Internet Explorer).

If you're not able to connect to the Internet, have you tried contacting your Internet Service Provider's technical support help line?

Dwight

Mystery250, try this.Shut your computer down and start it again and run a "scan disk for errors".You'll find it in your system tools.

Usually after fixing the errors , it fixes that kind of problem.

Running "scandisk" is easier in safe mode, for you don't have to shut all "windows programs"

What 'Windows' do You have?

I am using comcast cable, windows 98 350 megahertz. I am on the same computer, but all of the other browers are crap! I just want to be able to use Internet Explorer. Hehe

Please address the questions in my previous post:

What version of Internet Explorer?

I assume that you're able to connect with a given page using a different Web browser program. If you're running Netscape, for instance, does it load a page, but the same page will not load on Internet Explorer?

Have you tried running the Internet Explorer Repair Tool?

Start/Run/Type
msinfo32
Click OK
Click Tools/Internet Explorer Repair Tool

Click Yes to allow the tool to run.

When prompted, restart computer.

Dwight

Help.

Sorry I couldn't "post" this as "topic". Put it here in case anyone sees it. Thanks, Stanbee

6.0, and yes it works with other browsers

Have you tried the I.E. Repair tool?
Dwight

Yes. I just did, it did not work.

Do you mean it did not correct the problem, or that you couldn't access the Repair Tool?

We're not communicating very well. Obviously, we cannot see your computer, nor can we get a clear picture of the problem you're encountering unless you provide details. All of us here want to assist you with this, but we're helpless unless you provide details about the problem.

I'm still not sure if your Internet Explorer never opens any pages, or if there are some pages it can open correctly. It is important to know if this is an "intermittent" problem, or if the problem always occurs.

Have you attempted to run the Windows Update? If not, please give that a try.

Start/Windows Update (or Microsoft Windows Update).

Dwight

Yes, I have tried windows update also. It always says there is a DNS error, no matter what site I go to.
