Yesterday morning I was still using Vista and had access to the internet. I then installed Windows 8 and found that I could no longer connect. I checked everything, eventually discovering that I didn't have a network adapter driver. My service provider advised me to take my Windows 8 disk to the shop where I bought it and ask them to give me a disk with the missing driver. It seems strange to me that my Widows installation disk wouldn't include the driver necessary to connect to the internet. I am still stuck even if it is possible to download the driver (I am using my son's iMac for this post) unless I can download it to a flash drive and transfer it to my computer. If I were desperate I could reformat the hard drive to its factory settings which would bring back Vista and allow me to connect to the internet.
Sorry for my rambling but I have spent hours trying to solve this problem.
