on line hangs
I recently spent a few weeks downloading and installing
all of the patches and critical updates to bring Win98SE current. Now, I've started having bouts with mysterious lockups of my on line apps. Happens to both, AOL and MSN. Sometimes the apps work flawlessly, sometimes not. When I ctl-alt-del the app, it times out and I get the "program not responding" dialog box. Sometimes I can disconnect the phone line, have the app reconnect, and it works fine for hours. Sometimes, it doesn't even recognize the disconnect. Downloaded new modem driver from Compaq, but still a problem. Any suggestions? All other non-dialup apps are working without any problems. I've found there is a known problem with AOL hangs in XP due to WDM driver, and curious if problem might also exist in 98. Thanks |
