modem problems after MS upgrade
I downloaded and installed Microsoft upgrade KB842773.
Upon restart, I began having modem problems when connecting to the Internet. The process would hang up during the logon (on Earthlink, it happened during the "projection phase"), seriously enough that the PC was basically crashed. Couldn't even get Task Manager to work. I am running an HP pavilion 7970, 1.5 ghz Pentium 4, 128 mb rdram, with a Lucent Win 56K modem. Earthlink's so-called support says, talk to HP or Microsoft. I do blame the upgrade, because I did a system restore to the day before the upgrade, and am now able to use the modem again. Anybody have any ideas? Thank you, Pete |
