I just did a "repair" install of WinXp and everything came
out fine. Many problems went away. One thing is, though,
that I am not able to set up a connection to the intenet.
The option to set up broadband with a username and
password is grayed and inaccessable. Everything worked
before the repair. I am using SBC DSL and have a small
home network. I have not wanted to set up the network
until I have the internet connected.
Thanks for any help,
Bert
