Dial Up Connection / Small Screen Comes Up

Mar 30, 2007

When I click on a link which asks me to send an email, a small screen comes up headed New Messages. The From and To fields are already filled in correctly when it appears but when I type my message/request/whatever, along comes another screen headed Dial Up Connection and then Connect btinternet.com (my ISV.) My name again is correctly filled in with a space saying if I want to change this password what password? to enter it in space provided.

I have tried every known password which I have ever used and when I press to connect, another little screen pops up telling me that it is 'unable to establish connection.' how to get around this? I end up copying and pasting the original link into my btYahoo mail box and sending it that way. A tad long winded

Dial Up Networking Connection Disappears

Dec 17, 2006

XP Pro SP2. In Network Connections folder I had an icon for a dial-up connection (which I use), a LAN connection (for wired NIC), A Wireless connection (for built in wireless card), and a 1394 connection (firewire port that XP likes to list as a connection). The NIC, wireless, and 1394 I keep set to disabled when I'm not using them. I enabled the wireless card and set up ad-hoc connection to another laptop with built-in wireless, so I could transfer some files between the two.

After I was finished, I disabled the wireless connection again. My dial-up networking connection disappeared from the Network Connections folder, and it's shortcut icon on desktop disappeared. It still showed in IE Intenet Options, and I could dial-up from there, but when I did, no computer icons appear in the taskbar, leaving me no way to disconnect except by pulling the phone cord............

I`m on a dial-up connection at the moment and each page takes ages to load. Plus I`m being nagged to get off the PC. Also, sorry if this topic is being posted in the wrong place.Anyway, my PC decided it would be fun to revert to default settings (not a BIOS issue) every time I booted it up, so I decided to reinstall XP Pro, since it was due for a reinstallation anyway.

When I open up Explorer it automatically dials my ISP and when I close it I get asked if I want to sign off of my ISP. This is a great feature. When I open Firefox it dials but it doesn't ask me to sign off when I close it. Is there a way to make it do the same thing for Firefox?

Dial Up Connection After Clicking Froze Up - Shut Down

Jan 26, 2009

Has begun to occasionally blue screen a few minutes after initiating a dial-up connection. One time it simply froze up after clicking the dial-up connection, had to shut down and reatart. Debug log at end of this post names four Conexant modem drivers and then memory corruption. Have run memtest for 15 hours with no errors. Have uninstalled modem from device manager and reinstalled with new drivers. Tried 2 different sets of drivers, the ones from the manufacturer and ones from Windows update. (Which I normally would never put a Windows Update driver on a computer, but I was trying everything I could think of.) Then ran XP driver verifier on all drivers. It is not hot or overheating, all fans are clean and functional, and am running temp monitor program to verify. Could it simply be that the modem is on it's way out, or what should my next troubleshooting step be? ....

Dial Up Connection Partially Load The Internet Explorer Page From Favorites

Oct 26, 2007

I have put my Internet Explorer favorites on the start menu. When I click start, then favorites, and then click on a link, sometimes it will dial up and go to that particular web page as it should, it will only partially load the Internet Explorer page. It doesn't dial up and just locks at that point. When that happens I have to dial up my ISP directly, then open Internet Explorer, go to my favorites menu from there and then to the link I want

I Press Alt+Enter DOS Screen.opens 2 Full Screen Then Go Small In A Couple Of Seconds

Mar 19, 2008

I got a problem
I use a developer program to make executables (hobby of mine saves me going troppo) called Clarion, it works OK, I made a DOSable program with it, it works OK.
Once I could open to full size DOS screen by pressing the Alt+Enter keys and it would stay open until I was finished with it, then I could revert back to a small screen by pressing Alt+Enter keys again.

Now if I press Alt+Enter keys the DOS screen appears, but it stays open in full screen for a couple of seconds then automatically closes back to the usual small screen.

I have tried right clicking on the icon, properties, screen and putting a dot in the full size option, but this does not work.

I have scanned my PC for viruses etc but no joy there.
I have Dialup only, so don't ask me to do a Panda or Trend scan as they drop you if you no got broadband.

I'm using XP pro, 512meg ram, using a Gigabyte MB, and Nivida video card.
XP working OK-dokie, sound ok-dokie, video ok-dokie, screen to DOS wonkie.
how to fix this?

Changed From A Dial-up Connection To Cable: Search Engines Changed?

Mar 1, 2005

I changed from a dial-up connection to cable (Road Runner). Since then, my search engines have changed (when I search from the IE address bar, it uses MSN search now), and many pages that load, although faster, have the message "error on page" at the bottom. Outlook Express became my default email with the Road Runner email address, but most of the time it does not respond. Also, several games are slow to respond or do not respond at all (specifically CSI games and Hunting Unlimited). I run adaware and spybot at least once a week if not more, and defrag regularly. Are there extra precautions I should take with a cable connection?

Won't Go Past Splash Screen - Network Connection

Apr 26, 2010

I recently reformatted my laptop, and I got everything working, I had some network connection issues but I got past those. After installing SP2, I was unable to access any Microsoft websites, so I uninstalled SP2, after the uninstall process, it blue screened, though I don't remember what it said, it shut down after about 5 seconds and I was unable to catch the text displayed. Okay, so I try to start the computer up again, safe mode (all of them; networking, cmd prompt, etc) - Safe mode will not launch so that's out of the question. If I start windows normally or last known good configuration, it gets to the windows splash screen, and then goes black. If I could just get my important files that I moved to my computer, I could reformat again to try and fix the problem.. I have my XP disk in right now and was going to try and use the Repair on it, but I'm afraid that it'll stop any chances of recovering my lost files.
