Dial-up problem...

Gasjatt · 1st Feb 2007, 12:32 AM

A friend of mine is having trouble with his dial-up connection. Everytime he tries to dial up a connection on his pc, the dialing stops after a few beeps and starts another dialing attempt. This goes on repeatedly. When he connects his laptop to the same modem, the dial-up process goes smoothly. He then tried his modem on his brother's pc and it didn't show any problems. I assume the problem is on his pc... Anyone one can help troubleshoot this problem? Thanks
