Frequently, when I update XP with downloads to my Toshiba Sattelite I cannot
sign in to MSN or Hotmail. (I can sign in on my old ME driven machine, same
account, same house, same phone). My fix is to back date my configuration to
before the update. I have never had this problem occur on the ME machine:
but, of course, it is obsolete and never gets updates. Is this a common
issue - is there a fix?
 
Mark, Thanks for the direction to this page. I have saved it in favorites and
will use it frequently. However, I still don't know how to preclude this
issue. Once I backdate my configuration to an earlier date I can always get
in. I don't understand why when I update a couple of weeks later - the
system works. This has gone on for more than two years on this xp based
machine sometimes the updates work and sometimes I have to back up. I keeps
me from having the courage to install service pack 2 - for which I have
received the disk from Microsoft. If I can't make it work, I get the
impression that backing up to an earlier configuration is not possible.
