Comcast generally doesn't help with that except for a really high fee. Because it has nothing to do with the connection there giving you. I would try a few things. First with your screen depending if your on vista right click and select personalize and display. you need to make the resolution bigger. Also possible when it was fixed you know longer have drivers for graphics. Maybe internet as well. If you have vista go under update. View optional updates and install all of the optional ones except for other languages. XP i would to know the model number. But same thing you can adjust screen resolution under display in control panel. Again don't. Also is it a laptop or a desktop? is it directly plugged into the comcast modem? If so shutdown the computer. Unplug the modem for 1 minute. plug the power back in, wait a minute then turn your computer back on

the best thing that you can do if your comcast internet is slow is to call comcast and have them come to your house and take a look at your computer. Uninstalling programs won't help if you're not sure whats wrong with your internet connection.
