If you'd like assistance, please provide complete information. Saying "it was working, but now it's not", doesn't give us alot to go on, so you can't expect to get any meaningful help.

And your question is vague...you say "after I reinstall nothing!" Does that mean that AFTER you reinstalled (something, you don't say what), it stopped working? Or you reinstalled nothing (everything's the same), and it just quit? And WHEN did it stop? A year ago?

Does your internet connection work in Vista? What did you reinstall? What did you change?

Lol it should be all the way around. Ubuntu should be the host and windows the guest
