I have an old win 98 system that keeps crashing when I switch from using my cable modem, which I just installed, to AOL inadvertently which was using a dial up. So the switch to a program that's looking for a dial up modem (which is still installed, but the phone cable not connected) is making the system crash.

It's been a while since I've used AOL, but you can change it from using a dialup to using the cable modem. When you start AOL, there should be a settings or modem button on the login screen. Go thru the steps, and select the LAN option. That will use the cable (which I assume is Broadband) modem.
Like I said, it's been a while since I've touched AOL (we don't get along), but the solution should be about what I described.

Good Luck
Tim
