Re-booting, when I try to get on line.
When I want to go on line, my PC goes black, & re-boots, sometimes it will do it a 2nd time before I can ever get on line.
Whoa.....
Strange.
Mr 1cell is right. Winmodem is most likely thing. Other than that, tell us what kind of modem you do have and as much info as you can about it....

I can go as far as #4 on the information that you sent, then I can't get any further. I am still having problems when I want to connect to go on line, my computer will go black, then re-boot.

schrade,
when you say you can go as far as #4, do you mean there was no connection tab? please explain further.

dew, have a question for you in Win98 section
oops, sorry, wrong question, disregard last post
1) double click my computer
2) double click control panel
3) double click modems
4) in the modem properties window, with your modem's com port highlighted, click no properties
5) click the connection tab
6) click the advanced button
7) make sure there is a check in "use flow control"
8) if this is a winmodem, check "software", if it's not a winmodem, check "hardware"
this could be the cause of the problem, let me know
