false modem
Windows Update would not install new updates, so I had to
completely reinstall win98se. The setup would not function properly so I had to del the whole Windows folder in dos. After a successful install, the problem is that win98 falsely detects that I have a modem when it is in fact a network card. Now I cannot connect to the internet because windows continuously tries to setup the modem instead of allowing me to connect to the internet. (This is a different computer) |

Please refer this question to a general discussion group for your operating
system; its an OS system, not an internet problem, per se. -- _______________________________________ Sandi - Microsoft MVP since 1999 (IE/OE) http://inetexplorer.mvps.org "j h" wrote in message ...
