Problems with VS Mon error

[Justin Sane]

I am having a problem when I am on the net.
Sometimes, not always, I get an error message that says:
"VS Mon has caused an error" and it locks up my modem.

Yeah I know, laugh at the dial up freak, but have you tried getting DSL, or Cable modems in the backwoods of Kentucky?
Your lucky my phone has buttons.

Anyways, some background for the techs, I run a P.O.S. Compaq 1.0 gig, supporting dual monitors.

If you need more info just ask.

When I get this error message, it says that if I continue having problems restart my computer. Upon either exiting the message or hitting okay, my computer automatically reboots. This is not really a problem because I find that I need to reboot again in order to regain communication with the Net.

This has only recently been happening and I have been running the dual monitors for a long time.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
