I have 56K dial-up (sad I know) but unlimited (time & d/load).
As soon as I start a game (eg Quake, RCT2, or anything like that) I lose connectivity to my ISP but the modem does not drop out.
Connect lights show connected.
ICQ goes to disconnected, MSN does not notice it for ages, IE6 shows "unable to find page" etc. etc.
P3x800 (also sad) 193Mb RAM 2x40GB HDD, Win XP (Build2600)
Swann USB modem (latest driver installed this week).
Was not a problem on earlier installation of XP on same box, so some setting is different, just dont know what........
Oh and I am running NIS on this PC and it is networked with 2 other XP boxes for shared internet connection, they cant keep connection alive remotely.
No error messages are seen, disk is free of errors and defragged.
Think that about covers it.........
