Well I'm sorry but I cant help.

It seems that all i ever see nowadays is problems and conflicting ideas about pc's.  i thought pcs were supposed to get easier as they got better but it seems that they just develop more problems.  And no matter what the problem, someone always " has the same system with no problems"  so you dont get help.
I remember my old dell 486 with 4 meg ram.  i never had any problems with it.  my new system has nothing but problems.  Compuetrs are like squeak-goddesses.  they do amazing stuff 15 percent of the time.  the other 85% your trying to get it to do that amazing stuff.  I love em but i hate em

Your problem is the modem icon.  Turn it off. The other thread that you posted there has instructions on how to do it in one of the replies. Geforce 2 stutters when modem icon is displayed.

ok you go to dial up net working


then you look at the top bar under connections ( only way to do it )

take "settings" option

then un check show icon on task bar when connected .

thats it

ps get a external modem the little lights on the comp are wrong. you can tell alot more with a externals light and they are under 100 dollars now . also forget isa modems in compaq comps they dont have isa slots now .
