Reloading the drivers for your modem should cure this. Boot into Safe Mode. Remove your modem via Control Panel and then reboot & allow Windows to find and reload the drivers for it. If it's a special modem,(not Plug-n-Play), then have the CD or floppy with the drivers at the ready and show Windows where the drivers are. That should cure your symptoms Juanita. armando. 8) ------------------------------------- On Sat, 23 Nov 2002, Juanita wrote: [triadtechtalk] ?????????? > > In the last two weeks, sometimes when I try to > disconnect.
