Actually, I came accross a problem when I installed my RC2 of Win2k that baffled me for a while (maybe a bug or suggestion to make to MS?). I tried to connect to the internet when I finished setting up, and wondering how the wizard was, I decided to go that route. However, it would tell me "If you cancel the wizard now, all the information will be lost" or along those lines, when I KNEW I didn't cancel it (rarely do I even notice a cancel button on installs ;)

Anyways, after about an hour of farting around, trying to set up a DUN connection manually and all, I noticed in the hardware manager that my modem had an error (3Com v.90 Fax Modem). I simply re-installed the drivers (thank God I had them elsewhere on HD), tried the wizard and it worked immediately. I was on in about 3 minutes after that.

Just wondering if anyone else experienced this, or if I should submit this problem to Microsoft (DUN wizards fail when modem is installed but in conflict, un-detected)?

Anywho, this was also to let others out there know if you come this problem, or you're the neighbourhood "computer guy" :)
