Sorry, that should be "XP", not "WP." :-(

The problem is with the software, not Windows.

Did you insert the accompanying disk into the appropriate drive-bay?

Have you tried unplugging the USB modem?

Hi SC Tom

No it did not. I had to install the drivers from the dongle manually.
There must be some flag or file somewhere that has not been reset causing
this loop. If I could find this I am sure I can stop it. At this rate I am
going have to do a clean install which I do not want to do. I have cleaned
out the temp directories and non of the files on the dongle have been
modified or created as a result of the install so where is this reboot
notification coming from?

Hi PA Bear.

I know it is the software that is causing the problem but it must be being
told ,from somewhere, that a reboot is needed and after the reboot this
instruction has not been removed. I want to locate that offending
instruction to stop it.

Other than the registry or the Startup folder, I don't know that it can be
accessed by any normal means. Nothing in MSCONFIG that mentions it? Have you
tried a System Restore to the day before the installation?
