I currently use a dsl connection for connecting
to the internet, I wanted to set up a dialler
using the wizard but when i get to the screen
that asks what kind of connection to set up,
it won't let me pick the dial up connection,
it only allows me to pick the last one which is
broadband. I called my internet service provider
and they told me that a modem is not connected.
I do have a modem connected, I even tried another
modem but I still get the same results.
Hyperterminal connects but I can't even set up a
dialler through the connection wizard. Any help
would be appreciated.

Try this, click start>run and paste in

%SystemRoot%\system32\rundll32.exe netshell.dll,StartNCW

and see if that helps.
