TEN disconnect problem

by Walt Thoma » Tue, 22 Dec 1998 04:00:00

I went on TEN for the first time this evening to try out NASCAR.  It runs
great, but always disconnects 5 or 10 minutes into a practice session.  I
get an error message saying my network connection has been lost, then I get
a blank screen and have to reboot.

I disable my Screen Saver and close all programs.  Have 96 Megs RAM and a
350 mHz H-P.  Connected via a Road Runner cable modem.

Any suggestions on how to stay connected would be appreciated.

Try this: go to control panel/click internet icon/ connection tab/ settings
& see if the "disconnect on idle xx minutes" is tagged. If so untag & you'll
be in business.
