Windows 7 Can't Connect

Hello!

Be glad to help you out!  Are you running Windows7* Ultimate?    If you can tell me which flavor/version of Windows7* you are running and also, can you browse the internet with your netbook?   Meaning, can you bring up a browser and browse google.com?    If you can provide more details on your actual connection (wired, wireless, connection speeds, etc..) it would help greatly!

Regerds,

Corey

I'm having the same problem. I've put a screenshot of what I'm seeing here:  http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/7467/capturebn.png

My system is Windows 7 Professional x64, Core 2 Duo, 4GB laptop. The same problem shows regardless of whether I'm connected wirelessly or by an Ethernet cable.

One thing that is slightly unusual about my networking setup: I've got Sun's VirtualBox installed, and that software installs the "VirtualBox Host-Only Network" into the host Windows OS. Just to be clear: I'm running "Intel AppUp(SM) center Beta" in the host OS, *not* in a VM. Anyway, my thought about this is that your software might be looking at the wrong network connection - it sees the VirtualBox "network" and the fact it has no access to the Internet? Unfortunately I can't disable this driver without uninstalling VirtualBox (or so it seems).

EDIT: One possibly useful bit of information: the "cannot connect" message appears immediately. There's none of the delay one might expect if a program was waiting for a network timeout.

I'm happy to test a new version, if you're trying to chase this problem down.

Cheers

Thanks for the update!   Is you could take a screen shot of your actual network connections for historical arguements, and post it here, i would greatly apprciate it.  Make sure it does not contain anything personal in the screenshot.

Same here - Win 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

Any fix?

Single ethernet connection from Dell Inspiron 530 to Dlink DSL-G624T router.

Fixed it by logoff/logon  as in Known issues!

Hi Steve,

Thank you for sharing the information.

Same issue as above, and I'm on Win7 Ultimate.  I've tried the following to no avail:

• connecting to the Internet via wired & wireless (in both cases I can surf the web, but no AppUp)
  
  
• deleting my Internet cache and cookies
  
  
• installing all important and optional updates through WU
  
  
• uninstalling/reinstalling the AppUp client
  
  
• restarting the computer
  
  

Please help.

Thanks,

Stephen

Hello Stephen,

I just tested the Intel AppUp(SM) Center Beta on Windows 7 Starter and Windows 7 Ultimate, both 32-Bit Editions. Everything worked fine, to download, install and launch games etc.

Some questions:

- Is your Windows version in 64-Bit ?

- Do you use any Firewall software ? If yes, could you switch it off for a short test and see if the Intel AppUp(SM) Center Beta works then ?

- If you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet that could be a problem, too.

A good cross test would be to test a notebook of your friend with your Internet connection to see if the problem is with your computer or with the Internet connection.

Thanks for the quick reply Andre.

Yes, I'm on the 64-bit version.

I use Windows firewall, but the on/off settings are managed by my sysadmin, so I can't change it.  However I have explicitly gone in and added AppUp and checked all the permissions, so I'm pretty sure it's not the problem.

I have another notebook on my network (also running W7 Ultimate x64) and it can use AppUp just fine.

Stephen
