After restoring Windows XP Prof. My dial up modem
connection is not working. When I try to create a new
connection through the wizard, I get to the "connect with"
page, the dial up modem and broadband options are dimmed
(not available). This happened to a friend who said it has
to do with the service pack 1 being installed on my hard
drive and there is a registry edit which will fix this
problem. Do you know what it may be.
Thanks

Hi Ed,

Have you tried "Method 2" also?

If yes, check if this MSKB helps:

Deleting keys 25 & 26 in registry.
