    Error 651, permission from TrustedInstaller


    Hey, I'm at a friends house trying to get connected to the internet. (currently on a mac, but brought my tower over). He says that windows vista, Xp and mac can connect to his wireless router but my tower wont do it.

    When I put in the username/password it says error 651. I looked it up and a page told me to change the raspppoe.sys file to raspppoe_orig.sys, but then it says i need permission from trusted installer, how do I go about doing this?

    Thanks for the advice in advanced and sorry if this question is a major repeat

    Hi

    in order to change that (dont know why you have to but) you need to take ownership. there is a tutorial on that in the tutorial secation and a file to download.

    Hope this helps but dont think this is your problem

    Hey, my dad told me to turn on the DHCP (not sure what it is) but I dont know how to get to that.

    What do you think the problem is?

    Thanks!

    I had the same error message. I tried to rename raspppoe.sys and got a message that I needed to be an administrator to rename, even though I am an administrator! I read that a windows update would fix the administrator problem, but if you can't connect...? I broke out a copy of Linux Puppy. It lets you run from the CD, I renamed raspppoe.sys to raspppoe.bak and copied raspppoe.sys from my Vista laptop to the same directory, Windows\System32\Drivers, and restarted the machine and all works fine!
