Phone Dialer problem

[Guest]

Dear All,
Not sure if this is the right newsgroup, but if not please advice..
I had to reinstall Windows XP over my present system, everything now seems
to be working properly except the Windows Dialler.

Every time I try to use it to dial a number, either the slide-in connection
window take forever to appear, or it does not appear at all and the Dialler
prog just hangs or is it does connect, I cannot disconnect without using
task manager.

My Question is: is there any way to remove and reinstall the Dialler program
or edit something like the registry to solve this problem?
Many thanks for any support.
Barry

Hi Robert,
Many thanks, but the Phone Dialler is not listed at all in add/remove
Windows Components on Windows XP Home.
Yours

Hi Gerry,

I believe the OP is talking about Phone dialer (dialer.exe), not dial-up
connection.
