Guys
Three questions to hopefully help me help a friend, who wants to use BT Braodband (no, suggesting they don't is not the answer!).
She cannot run the BT braodband Set-Up disc - it goes part way and freezes. I have run the same disc on my PC, and it works fine.
She is running Win 98(se), on a 63mb Ram machine, which has a processor of 'GenuineIntel, X86 family 6 model 8 stepping 3' (what ever that is).
Also, I cannot get the USB to Ethernet adapter to work (i was trying to run, through my Router the BT 'min-spec' program).
1) Can anyone tel me if the processor is greater than Pentium II 233, which is the minimum required.
2) Anyone suggest how I can get the USB/Ethernet adapter working. Win 98 does not recognise it under Plug & Play, and when I try loading the drivers (
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/myron.s/BB-DeviceDrivers/) it fails. Could the USB ports not be working? They show up in the System.
3) I managed to somehow get her to need to sign-on everytime the machine starts, despite there being no password. I am sure it is just a setting, but don;t know where.
(
edit) Have just sorted out (3) - for anyone searching for same issue - try using

Any help greatfully received....
