sp2 is a pile of wank. microsoft claimed that it fixed many bugs when accualy it's more likely to have opened about 100% more of them

your problem has happened to about 3people i know and they resolved it by either a reinstall of windows (without sp2) or by switiching to ethernet cables for the modem

you'll probably find that if you use eithernet for your modem you wont have a problem " the only thing i can seguest is either 'reistall windows (without sp2)' or get an eithernet cable for your modem providing you have a spare network cable"



Fast is fine, but accuracy is everything.

Had nothing but good experience with SP2 myself.



I used to have a handle on life, but it broke.
