I also have a problem like this. I have an old Dx100. I use a rotary data
switch to my Sportster 28-33 external modem. I can connect from my mac or
my Pentium Pro, using the switch to the same modem and the same ISP, but
not from this dx100. On the dx100 the modem dials out fine, downloads
mail form JUNO with no problem; but when I access my ISP from this
machine I get a connection, but as soon as I try do download EMail or
read a web page the browser stops functioning (Netscape 3 or 4.04). The
connection is dropped and frozen.
I have reinstalled Win95 in a new directory and reinstalled all hardware
and software to no avail (though it sure did speed up my system).
everything else works fine on this machine.

DX4 100 w/ 32 megs, 1.o gig wd drive colorado internal Jumbo tape drive,
Intel etherxpress pro 10, adaptec 1522b scsi card, herculese graphite
video card, targa classic video frame buffer card (DOS only - uses adress
D000:DFFF)

any ideas before I start pulling the guts out.
Thanks
Joel Bluming
