Have Thinkpad t41 running XP Professional. Trying to connect to netzero dialup. Get a 633 modem or other device already in use. Not sure if this is a problem but the Ethernet indicator light is always solid yellow with nothing connected to the port. Have another lap top that I can connet to net zero using the same phone cable. No Ethernet lights are on. Netzero properties shows the Agere Systems AC 97 modem is using Com 3. When I look at device manager it only shows LPT1 & Com 1. The computer that connect also only shows LPT 1 & Com 1, so not sure thats a problem. Any help appreciated! Don

I had this T41 for 4 years. The only thing I've changed is an additional 512MB memory which was installed 3 yrs ago and hasn't brought any problems. All the other parts are untouched. The keyboard did get tortured by a few times of coffee spilling, but it survived. Recently my T41 had start to halt (being unresponsive to keyboard and track point actions) during running Windows XP, and then got back to normal. Starting from last week, it won't start and halted at the BIOS start screen. Then in the rare case it did get through, it would halt often while running Windows. I suspect it is due to the keyboard and the track point, but not sure. Could anyone give me any suggestions how to solve it? Thank you very much.
