XP crashes when disconnecting dial-up connection
Using Windows XP Pro, SP3 + all subsequent updates.
Intermittent problem: after successfully connecting to the ISP via dial-up, everything works fine until disconnecting, when the machine crashes and reboots. This scenario is unpredictable -- sometimes the machine crashes, sometimes it doesn't. No recent hardware changes. I suspect a memory glitch. Other ideas anyone? -- Ian |

Not a memory glitch...but a voltage spike an MOV across the line *might* help though there may already be one built-in to the modem |
