I have a pc which is giving problems with connecting to the internet. We are using a new ISP and we can log onto the ISP server but cannot surf web pages or check e-mail.
To date I have reloaded DUN and the settings for the ISP. He is using IE6 and I have carried out a repair on that.
I have also loaded the ISP settings for a company I use and have the same probs with that also. he has another connection to the internet (not using an ISP) and we can surf happily with that.
The pc is running Windows 98
I transferred his ISP settings to my pc, admittedly running Win XP, and it connected without any problem.
I am beginning to wonder if it may be a problem with Win 98 itself as it has been loaded for quite a few years now, although he is not having any other problems with this machine.
Any suggestions?
