I'm confused by this statement that you've made because in the "Both
laptop &
desktop Vista & W7" thread you stated-
"Both laptop and desktop Vista PCs, including the new W-7 will no longer
work with dial-up. What MS update did this to our 3 PCs? Yes, it still
works on XP but we don't use the old XP PC anymore. How do we get
dial-up back on Vista and W-7?"
So are you now stating that you've had a problem getting online with a
dialup modem since the beginning. If so why state in the other thread
that your modem problem just started,what's the reason for misleading us
about when your dialup problem started?
