On the successful attempt in the separate machine did you use the same phone
line? If not try a line noise filter. When I was using dialup I suddenly
developed this problem and that's what solved it.

Subject: [pchelpers] System bug
A customer needs help identifying an odd problem with her PC. She's
running windows 95 and uses paradise.net for email. Recently, something
made it impossible to dial into the connection.
I checked the modem, that's ok (works when we use a dialler for xtra),
but gets disconnected before logging into paradise.
I scanned for virus, spyware and trojans, but none were found. The
system was completely clean.
Re-installing the operating system produced no change at all.
I backed up the files and re-partitioned and formatted the hard drive,
then loaded a clean operating system. A brand new dialler had the same
problem.
Checkit says all motherboard functions are ok.
I put the hard drive in a separate machine and could dial paradise from
there. Without stating my own conclusions, what do you folks think?
