Run Regedit, and under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Enum\ .....

To Delete all hardware, you would remove the Enum key. Or to delete a
specific piece of information, click the plus sign next to Enum, and delete
the corresponding key.... I am not sure which one you would need to delete,
but it should be easy to find with hundreds of entries..... :-)

Good Luck,

Steve Wolfe

Subject: Re: [PCBUILD] Dial Up Adapter/Win98 SE


Thanks so much to everyone for the help and information so far.  My friend
did
remove the 3com NIC from the system.  However, we've now run into another
wrinkle.
I had him go into Device Manager to see what is there, and to remove any
references to the 3com NIC or dial up adapter.  Well, there seem to be
HUNDREDS,
yes literally HUNDREDS of Dial Up Adapters under his "Network Adapters"
section,
as well as quite a few more under "Other Devices".  Any way to get rid of
these
other than to choose each one individually and "remove"???  That will take
forever to do!  Is there a registry edit that will remove them from Device
Manger
in one fell swoop??  :>  If not, and he indeed has to remove them one by one
from
inside Device Manager, will he also have to go and delete any reference to
them
in the registry??

Again, thanks for everyone's help!
