458189 2006-05-27 07:03:00 Anyone know of a setting in XP that would cause a computer shutdown whenever the dialup connection "connect" is selected to start the modem dialing. Happens every time, not an intermittent problem. Safari (3993)
458190 2006-05-27 07:20:00 had a faulty PSU do that tho it was intermittent.

otherwise faulty modem or incorrect/damaged drivers.

458191 2006-05-27 08:14:00 Yup sounds like a corrupt modem driver. Download the right driver for it, and reinstall it. Speedy Gonzales (78)
458192 2006-05-27 08:30:00 Thanks tweak'e and Speedy - rather unusual problem never heard of that before. Safari (3993)
458193 2006-05-27 08:35:00 It will either be the driver, or the modem maybe conflicting with something in the system.

If the driver doesnt fix it, I would check device manager.

See if anything is showing a X or !
