SYMPTOMS

After you upgrade to Windows 98 from Windows 3.x or Windows for Workgroups 3.x, Dial-Up Networking does not contain any of the previous connection information.

CAUSE

1. Double-click My Computer, and then Double-click Dial-Up Networking.



2. Double-click Make New Connection, and then follow the instructions on the screen to create a new connection.
