Re: Line/Modem Question
Clean shut down & power off. No activity.
As soon as W98SE is starting and loaded it commences with the spooky status light.
If I disconnect the patch cable going to the NIC is ceases the activity.
Fire wall was shut down and removed as part of my own trouble shooting. |

| I've already checked that as initial trouble shoot item. The only thing running is "Explorer", and this IE browser window...... Even before opening the IE the activity is going on. Had shut down all processes that were running in background, even Antivirus. |
