Hi,
I need some help. Building new computer for a brother in-law. Got a full win98se install, directx7a, Agp (via), vid driver. Everything smooth so far. Add modem, sound, and NIC. Nic is only installed temporarily to use my dsl to update before giving it to him. Anyhow, surfing speed seems ok. However, whenever I try to download, I get a few k then it stops. Happens in WindowsUpdate, Symantec Live update. Again, surfing seems ok...maybe a little slow. Swapped NIC with known good one, used known good connection (one I'm using), direct into DSL modem, same symptom. PC seems to work fine with this exception. Tried only vid card and NIC, same result. WTF All I want to do is make sure everything is current before I let him have it (Win98, MSOffice, etc).
I just build another last week and had no problems. So I'm really stumped. Config below. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Enlight Mid Tower w/ 250w Supply
MSI K7TPro (6330)
Duron Boxed 700
128Mb Corsair Value {PC133)
Fujitsu 13Gb ATA66
3Com 56k PCI non-winmodem(latest driver)
LinkSys 100TX(latest driver)
Asus V-7100 Geforce 2MX 16Mb(latest driver)
Hitachi DVD-Rom
Onboard sound
Only using AGP driver (most current)
Can't think of anything else relevant.
