Getting no response, please assist
This problem has been occuring for over 2 weeks, ihave tried everything i
can think of to remedy it, including replacing the modem. i am running windows XP pro.
The problem.
After i dial-up and see my connection, i get no response from anything i
click on, except the folders on my desktop. And then about 9 minutes later -
everything i've clicked on opens at once.
if i open task manager before i dial-up, everything i click on is listing in
the processes. System Idle process is using 98-99 cpu.
if anyone can help, thankyou in advance.

When the problem reappears, you have your culprit.i remain, he who remains to be....
