O.k.-I will try to describe my problem better. I have XP Pro with a Dial-Up connection.
When I click on the shortcut on my desktop it does not work. When I go to start-network connection–the icon and heading that says dial up are gone. I have to use the wizard to do a new connection and then it works again until it disappears again and the shortcut icon quits working again. The icon on my desktop does not dissapear. My modem is not a problem so I am not doing to unplug that.
I hope everyone understand my problem better–any ideas why this is happening?

I am connected to the internet with a dial up. Then I log on to my internet dish with a LAC connection. My tech guy said we could both use the service at the same time if we use the 2 static IP numbers that he gave us. He said not to use the network wizard as this would not work. Where do I put the IP number. I tried the above idea and my LAC icon turned red and I had no connection to the dish. Have you ever heard of this type of connection?
The tech guy that we have is not very consumer friendly.

I finally figured out the problem. I had Norton 2002 still installed on my machine and a program called “Go Back” was still running. First I uninstalled Norton but was still having a few problems and went to the Microsoft XP site. I read on there about “Go Back”. I took off “Go Back” and I finished installing without a problem.

I mean the system tray. I know about programs being hidden and this is not the case. If I look in task manager, the program is there but it is not showing in the system tray and it should be.

Thanks for your help. I had a Windows 95 companion disk and that worked.
I’m on my way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks again

Should I have a disk that came with my computer?

windows 98 upgrade

I’m choosing save image. Drop down box says “All files”.
It is saved on desktop and looks like an icon with a folded over edge.
When I click on the icon I have to pick a program to open it.

I would like to save as a jpg. When I save now I have to pick a program to open the picture every time.
When I do a save, all it says at the drop down arrow is
“All files” instead of jpg, etc.
