If using Ethernet connection (network cable + Network card) with a cable modem, then all you need to do is create a standard LAN connection and set up the TCP/IP protocol in that conenction so that it obtains an Ip address and DNS server automatically. Setup IE connection settings to automatically detect settings (IE - Tools>Internet Options>Connections>Lan Settings).

If using a USB connection between your pc and the cable modem then you might need the disk for the drivers, but since i dont use that i cant help there.

No Point setting up your email, haha , it never works, hasnt worked for me since may.

Good Luck
Gary

Yes. And using the drivers provided for the modem. May be on a seperate floppy disk.

It's as easy as that is it!

Thank heavens we can't get broadband round here, it took me three months to get my head round setting up dialup connections.

If it is like a DSL line you should copy the information in Control Panel under Networking, all of the information on IP addresses like DNS settings,
Gateway. On what I have they give you this information on paper and you have to put it in but you might have it done automatically via your cd. I would check in control panel and save the information. Also on most crashes with XP, restoring to a previous time will solve the problem and the drastic step of totally redoing the system is not necessary.
