[WTC] PCzone at lowyat ..

I bought my pc at PCzone in lowyat over a year ago..

I didnt realise it that time because I was unaware. So here is how it goes..

I bought my pc : core2duo E8400, with a gigabyte mobo, msi nvidia 9600GT. And all necessary under one roof. A stupid roof that is... After a week or so.. I realised I didnt have my stickers which I was supposed to have.

My nvidia ORIGINAL sticker wasnt there, .. gigabyte mobo sticker wasnt there... Those stupid idiots stole them while fixing up my computer. HOW CAN THEY DO THAT???

So being patient.. I decided to let it go.. but then.. a few days ago.. I decided to add on a 1TB hard drive.. Which of course I did.. To my horror, when I opened my pc to put the hardware, I realised my first hard drive had ONLY THREE SCREWS ON THEM. That no wonder I could feel vibrations whenever my hard drive is in use all these while!!

Its so dangerous as it wobbles. Could have done permanent damage on my hard drive.. And on the plus side.. There WASNT ANY EXTRA SCREWS from my cooler master casing. I'm guessing they stole that too. Bunch of idiots!!!

Arghhh!!!!!

I have a Dell desktop, running on Windows XP service pack 3, AND another personal desktop (B) running on the same platform. Both PCs are located at two ends of my house. I usually connect to the internet from my dell desktop via a PCI wifi adapter, which is then connects to my router... The problem is..

I want to connect the personal desktop B to the internet too via a network bridge through a LAN cable connected to my Dell. However, I've encountered several problems..

1) My wifi does not work when I enable the LAN connection in 'network connections'. Why does this happen?? The meaning of does not work means I cannot browse through the internet at all..there doesn't seem to be a connection.

2) When I start a network bridge, my wireless icon at the bottom of the screen shows a red cross, which..obviously means I'm not connected to my router. I still cannot get a single internet connection on both PCs.

How can I rectify this problem?
Is there another method other than bridging to connect both PCs via a LAN cable?
