| 273719 | 2004-09-19 05:16:00 | I've got an old Toshiba Satellite 1710 CDS notebook computer. It was working fine but Internet dial up connection is dropping after every few minutes. OS: XP Reinstalled XP and Modem driver but it doesn't help. Could it be the modem problem? How difficult it is to replace the notebook's modem? Any 'complications' in opening up the notebook? Cheers |
