I am using my old computer with Win 98 and its slower than crap so pls help.

My other computer was working fine until the other day and it would not dial up, said it could not find a dial tone. I plugged a phone into the line and it works, hook up the old computer and it goes right online, I tried another used modem and it does the same, moved the modem to another slot and the same. When I try to go online the modem makes a quick click and then no more noise.

When I go to device manager two windows come up that say something like Microsoft console, not device manager so I can't try that. I have Win XP pro, so any ideas on how to turn on the modem and how to get the device manager to work?

device manager is the same way to get there as every windows operating system..

Right click on my computer

Click on Properties

Click on Hardware

Click on Device Manager

Remove All your dialup connections

Remove all your modem drivers

Re-install drivers

Re-install DUN ( Dial Up Network ) Connection

Try again.

The outside window says Console1 at the top and the tool bar has File,Action,View,Favorites,Window,and Help.

The window inside of that one says Console Root at the top and has an open folder with Console Root beside that.

When I x out the inside window I get one new window that says Microsoft Management Console at the top and tool bar has File and help. When I click on file there is

1 C:\WINNT\System32\Com\comexp

2 C:\WINNT\system32\secpol

3 C:\WINNT\system32\services

4 C:\WINNT\system32\perfmon

Where is the device manager?
