Dial-Up Networking is a piece of software which allows Internet connectivity for Windows 95/98/ME. On most systems, it
should be installed by default. Occasionally this is not the case, and it is necessary to install it manually. Moreover,
some connection troubles can be solved by re-installing this component. | Install Dial-Up Networking |

|
|
| Click on your 'Start' menu (usually bottom left) |
| Go up to 'Settings' |
| Double-click on 'Add/Remove Programs' |

If you complete the steps below and Dial-Up Networking still does not appear, you will need to drop your computer in to a computer shop to have it installed. |

|
| Select 'Communications' (single left-click) |
| Click on the 'Details' button |
| Put a tick in the 'Dial-up Networking' box |
| Click on 'OK' |
| Click on 'OK' again |
