What exactly happened? Did you hit the button that connects with the internet? Did you change a proxy server? Did you check for viruses? Is the firewall blocking something? Did you lose connection with the internet or just a specific site?

i lost connection with the internet as i was playing a game. i almost dropped the computer and may have hit a botton. i know on my laptop you hit F2 to gain and lose connection

There might be a button near the power button, it looks kind of like...a tower, with a dot, and two radiation looking lines on it.
You may have hit that button, if you have it, and that causes the internet option to turn off. If it isn't that, then try other connections around the area, if there are any, because it could be the wireless.
