how can i turn the wireless connection on????
if you still cannot connect, download the programs to another PC and transfer to your PC via USB
if your network icon appears on the Windows taskbar, then you can repair it by right-clicking on the icon and selecting Repair.

If you have no task bar icon do this:
Click on the Start button.
Click on the Settings menu option.
Click on the Control Panel option.
When the Control Panel opens, double-click on the Network Connections icon. If your Control Panel is set to Category View, then double-click on Network and Internet Connections and then click on Network Connections at the bottom.
You will now see a list of available network connections. Locate the connection for your Wireless or Lan adapter and right-click on it.
click on the Repair menu option.

Let the repair process perform its tasks and when it has finished, your Internet connection should be working again.
If not - try the following:
Go to Start > Control Panel, and choose Network Connections.
Right click on your default connection, usually Local Area Connection for cable and DSL or Dial-up Connection if you are using Dial-up, and choose Properties.
Click the Networking tab
Double-click on the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) item.
Write down the settings in case you should need to change them back.
Select the radio button that says "Obtain DNS servers automatically".
Click OK twice to get out of the properties screen and restart your computer.
If not prompted to reboot go ahead and reboot manually.
In I.E.
Check internet options settings.
Tools > Internet Options > Connections
LAN settings
Choose "automatically detect settings"
uncheck both proxy settings boxes
In FireFox
Click on Advanced -> Network -> Setttings…
the No Proxy option should be selected
If still no connection - run these scans:
Please download DDS from either of these links

and save it to your desktop.
Disable any script blocking protection
Double click dds.pif to run the tool.
When done, two DDS.txt's will open.
