When my computer turns on, all the other computer's internet won't work, anybody know a solution?

It sounds like your computer is stealing, or duplicating the IP address of the network's router.

I'd look into your subnet settings. Make sure your getting assigned a dynamic IP address for each piece of equipment on your network.

Or that PC is overrriding DNS for the network.

IP conflict

cuz your computer is poop

Like others have mentioned, it sounds like your computer's IP address is a duplicate or the network router perhaps. You should try changing your computer from using a static IP address (manually set), to acquire an IP address via DHCP. If your computer is already using DHCP and you're still having the problem, try refreshing it's IP address by releasing and renewing from the command line / DOS prompt. The commands are: "ipconfig /release" and "ipconfig /renew"

You might also check to make sure you're not "sharing your internet connection" from your computer, which in fact would be setting up another DHCP server, which could also be in conflict with your default router.
