The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    I'm on a friends desktop. Dell Dimension 3000, Conexant D850 56k modem (latest driver according to Windows), XP Home, 256 MB mem which I plan on upgrading to 768 next week.

    I need to open the browser first (IE or FF) and then dial-up. Of course, it cannot load page, dial-up, get a connection, then need to refresh to get to the home page.
