Error 31: A device attached to the system is not functioning and more..
Hi,
I have a dual booting system Win XP Pro/ WinMe.
I use WinXP Pro and WinMe is only if anything goes wrong with XP especially internet and thats exactly my problem right now.
I'm on dial-up and whenever I connect to the net it verify the username/pass and just after it's registering the PC on the network I get this Error 31.
So again I tryt to connect and then I get another Error 691 and then again reconnect it says usernmae/pass invalid and then again 31.
In WinMe its working fine as I have posted this topic . Help! :-)
TIA

Hey thanks for ur reply :-)
@Saahil
I already tried those steps before posting this problem but didn't work .
@kumaran
Currently I'm in Win Me After I finish my net work I'll boot to XP and reply back.
I noticed that it's taking more than 8 attempts in WinMe too.
I fear there might be something wrong with Modem Which is Coexant HCF v90 56K.
But at the 8th attempt I do get connected at normal speeds with no problem in surfing.
Can it be a ISP problem ?

I checked that MS KB and all settings are as per that KB so no changes were necessary. Then I tried to reconnect and I'm very sorry that mistyped Error 691 but actually it is Error 619 =) as discussed here:

What exactly is RRAS server? Is that a hint that the problem is with my ISP ?
@Saahil
I'll try that tool and I'm going to kick thier a$$ if my modem is ok ;-)

Well, I saw your last message and could see what the problem might be...
In the Dialup properties, try to add 4 commas (,,,,) after the number to which you are dialing. it looks the system idle timeouts even before the handshake completes.
