Win98SE config probs
Am trying to config Win98SE from scratch and have the following
serious problem. Run the Internet Wizard, use manual as i already have an ISP. Put i all parameters possible and then have to diddle modem for 115Kbaud, max FIFO; have to diddle dialing for always use area code; and some other diddling i do not remember to get the damn dialing to work correctly. *First* time, IE does automatically "launch" dial-up, connect, etc. **Problem #1: Absolutely hate it taking forever to login (booting an original 1980 IBMPC XT was faster). So i am on the net (whoopee - except i am asleep due to long wait). Close browser, disconnect. Try IE again, same story. Shut down, power off, power on, boot to Win98SE. **Problem #2: Try IS and *NO* auto dial-up; no fiddling will fix it. Wipe HD and try again. Same sh*t. Am getting ****ed. Any positive suggestins to *permenantly* fix these problems? |
