Cannot Register Windows 98ID: Q237335
|
When you attempt to use the Registration wizard to register Windows 98, you may receive the following error message:
Cannot connect because the modem settings are not correct.
This error message can occur if there is a number in the "For long distance calls, dial" or the "For local calls, dial" box in the Dialing properties for the modem.
To resolve this issue:
When the Registration wizard tries to call using the modem, it attempts to dial any number in the Dialing properties boxes. For example, if you have the number "1" in one of the boxes, instead of the Registration wizard dialing the number as 1-800-999-5698, it attempts to dial the number as 11-800-999-5698.
