It is? 'Kin 'ell, tell us the secret!bobg said:...Amazing how its really easy to stay calm and unstressed until yer PC goes wrong...
bobg said:Hmmm... no. Not sure if the Vista upgrade discs she got was the full operating system?? I doubt it knowing how the manufacturers hate proving full systems these days. and even if it was how would I know
The Acers site doesnt seem to offer the Invilink modem driver anyway so no amount of changing systems 'll get me over that hurdle. They made the b....y thing, you'd think it wouldnt be a big deal to provide them!!!

Well bugger me, it is simplebobg said:No problem, just pack up work, eat porage for breakfast, go for a ride in the morning, have a pub lunch, take a power nap in the afternoon, practice your banjo in the evening, take a large malt before bed, read until the early hours. Vary the above depending on the time of year and the weather.... job done Works for me but then I'm easily pleased - not been stressed ( till yesterday) for about 5 years now . Mind you being a lazy sod helps...
pubrunner said:Hi there,
Have you tried this site ?
http://www.findmysoft.com/drivers/publisher/Acer/
It has loads of Acer drivers, including Modem drivers.
Is it a modem router or an older 'dial-up' modem ? If it is a dial-up modem, I'm sure I've a couple going spare; I could post one to you with the required drivers if required. They are a straight forward install.
If it is a dial-up modem, look at the chipset - there should be a name on there such as conexant. You could then do a new search for those drivers.

I too have the lazy gene... now, if I can just work out how to pay for the pub lunch and the large malt...
bobg said:Thanks a bunch Pubrunner, I just downloaded everything on that site relating to the Aspire 9300 in the hope that if I stick the flashdive in at startup, I might get a hit. And thanks too for the very kind offer of a dial up modem. I think the modem in it found the network in my house all by itself ( no security ) not sure what kind of modem that makes it?)

bobg said:What ho Dom, Whatever the f.... things called that connects it to the internet I'm struggling here, I still listen to the wireless, clean my shoes every morning and eat my dinner up at the table!!
