Was going to work on Start menu from the other thread on this
computer, but another issue came up.
I am starting to configure a DUN configuration, Network was showing
TCP/IP and several other usual entries and a icon, no description.
Properties said it was for NT??? so I removed it. It said reboot, then
asked for files on W98 disk, it would not search there, I finally
canceled and booted normal. I looked in DM, I see question mark for
3Com PCI Eternet Controller. I deleted it as I use DUN.
Now every reboot, it finds that PCI controller as new hardware and
reinstalls it, asking for files.
Advice?
Another issue: On initial BIOS screen, I see MBA- Managed PC Boot
Agent.
What is this?

Thanks to all, a backup reg to yesterday, and disable in current
profile
should take care of it.
Any ideas on this? I never saw it on any other machine.

Also, on bootup, screen says- initializing MBA, Lanmark 2000 subsidiary
of 3Com. Is something running at bootup that is not needed?
Update- going to yesterdays registry, and disabling the 3Com PCI Eternet
Controller in the current profile fixed the finding new hardware screen
problem.
In DM under Network Adapters: I have 4 entries-
Dialup Adapter - enabled
3Com PCI Eternet Controller- disabled as above
Dialup Adapter #2(VPN Support)- I disabled this
MS Virtual Private Networking Adapter- I disabled this
In the past, in DUN setup issues, it was stated to simplify the Network
area as much as possible, eliminate any unnecessary functions.
Advice?
