dead router?

all of a sudden all internet connection went down. i am able to go online through the modem but not when router is plugged in. i reset both the modem and router and still no connection. this router is about 2 years old and was pretty much on all the time. is this a sign of a dead router?

what a waste of time and money. game looks old, textures even when set to very high are very bad. it's like the whole game is one big step backwards.

Re: Help me pick a racing game

flip-mode, another thing you might consider, if you dont want to go over $50, is to get an xbox controller. i only use it for racing and sports (fifa, nba) games and find it very comfortable and still give a pretty good feeling.

no restart after nvidia drivers installation

i havent changed my drivers in a while and today i was doing a fresh install o win7 and new nvidia drivers and after all is done there is only "finish" button and they didnt ask for a reboot?
