Guest bill Posted September 12, 2008 Posted September 12, 2008 I have XP home and my dial up connection just disappeared! The following is what now happens. When trying to re-establish a connection I go through the following errors. Network Connection Folder unable to retrieve Network Adaptors. Make sure Network Connections Service running. ( this refuses to start ) Could not start Network Connections :- error 1058 disabled or has no enabled devices. Clicking on 'Setup an Internet connection' has no effect. What on earth have I done?? Any help appreciated. Bill
