Ok I'm not sure if this is the right area to post but if it isn't give me the link to where it should go and I'll repost it there.

I have XP sp2 home

Anyways, I just moved from a place with dail up to a college res with high speed, now I disable my dail up connection from being the default, and the high speed started runing. YAY, but now when I turn my Windows media player or some other programs the dail up trys to come on, which is weird to because it never did when I was using Dail up.

Also, now the internet isn't totaly stable, my Firefox times out, and MSN turns off for no reason, the connection must be going up and down, which I bet has something to do with the dail thing.
can anyone help me?

Hello clawingwolf,

Have you completely deleted your dialup connection from Start > Control Panel > Internet Options > Connections?

This forum is okay for this. Wink

FYI: We don't repost here. If it needs to be moved then we move it. To let us know that you can Report it with the blue square in the upper right corner of the post. Thanks.

You are in good hands here with Fox, btw. Thumbs Up
