I think I fried mine.

No....don't ask...

Are they replaceable and if so, how much?

[Thunndarr]

They start around 10-15,000 won probably. They're not expensive, don't worry about it. By the way, you didn't plug your phone cord into it did you?

[katydid]

Um, this is an internal LAN card if that will make any difference.

And, no I didn't plug my phone into it.

I'm not *that* stupid...

Thanks for your help.

[Thunndarr]

If it's for a desktop, it will be cheap. If it's for a notebook, I have no idea what it will cost you.

[katydid]

Yeah, guess what...it's for a laptop.

They call it a laptop, and then keeping the thing on your lap causes problems!

What the hell?!?!?!?!

[Giant]

if it a laptop, then you will need to buy a PCMCIA lan card and you are a for away. Just disable the onboard one.

[katydid]

I'm sorry...English please. I am a for away what? How much is that going to cost me?

[katydid]

I think it's gone back to normal fingers crossed.

[katydid]

Argh...no it hasn't.

Giant, can you please PM me and help me out? My LAN card is integrated and I guess that means it's a bad thing it is no longer working.

For crying out loud, I am trying to save money to go home and I really don't need to drop a million won on a part for a computer that cost twice that.

If anyone can help me, I'd greatly appreciate it. I have a friend who might help me out, but only afetr he finishes the I Told You So chorus.

Phone the service repair center of the manufacturer. Only they have the answer you seek if it's truly a hardware related issue.

[katydid]

The answer I seek....it's not like this is a quest or anything.
