I updated the on-board video drivers, but looking at the details with the new drivers most of the file dates are the same. Per USR the WinXP has the correct drivers for my modem. I've un-installed ZAP & AT program, Boclean. I am using WinXP FW though. I don't have a lot of email to download, but it seemed to work properly for DL of email. Web page downloads seems slower though. It may be all the services WinXP Pro runs in the background that slows down DL of web pages, but am not sure. I'll probably disable the FW in WinXP Pro and see what happens. Off line this new PC screams, but on-line through a dial-up seems slower than my old P166 with Win98. There are loads of services on WinXP Pro. I don't have a handle on what loads with default install, and don't know what is required for a dial-up connection. I would suspect this may contribute to problem. With all the services on default install, I would suspect that assumption of WinXP Pro users would be using broad band connection. Well when it is in the budget, I might make that step after a purchase of a hardware firewall solution. In the meantime if anyone can contribute to solution, it would be appreciated.
