I have jot got a 'Belkin' Starter Network Kit, which has two PCI Network Cards.

I have put one card into this PC (the other will go in the new one, once I get it) and installed it as normal.

The thing is, ever since I installed it all of my Internet files have been messed with. Internet Explorer will no longer let me select 'remember password' in the dial up connection box, as well as the password being wiped. All my E-mail password in Outlook were wiped. This Web Site asked me to login in to even poest this message, which it never does.

Also, my connectiong hangs for about 40 seconds every minute or so.

I uninstalled it, just in case it was a one off, and everything went back to normal, then I re-installed it, and the same thing happened again.

Is this suppose to happen when a Network Card is installed??

cjh, I had problems also, it only really sorted itself out when I had a complete reinstall of WIndows (98) - I'm NOT suggesting you do this, it may not acheive anything.
The card manufacturer is your best bet.

Never happened to me. Tried emailing Belkin?

I just put some cheap rubbish network cards in my PCs, and they're perfect!

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Thanks!
Thank you for dealing with this so promptly it's nice having a service provider that offers a good service, rare to find nowadays.
