I was hoping someone here could help.
My girlfriend has a Linksys wireless router that is hooked up to the cable modem at the house. The two laptops in the house are in perfect working order. But the desktop pc is having problems locating the server.

I don't have too many specifics for the pc, but this is what I DO know:

Its a compaq percisio (sp). It has Windows Millenium as the OS with a pentium II processor.

Anytime she tries to get on the internet she immediatley gets a message that says "cannot locate server". Everything else is in fine working order.

Any ideas on how to remedy this? I don't know much about computers so forgive my ignorance if this doesn't make sense or if there is an easy solution. Thanks in advance.
