i run xp home and on startup got a message saying "new hardware ATWPKT2 found" even though i had,nt installed anything.
in device manager the file ATWPKT2 is there with the yellow mark against it.
I did a google search and was informed it was associated to AOL and to go into AOL files and either delete or rename the file, which i did.
After doing this i could no longer get connected to AOL and i had to completely Reinstall the software.
i wonder if anyone has any ideas what this file is and how i can get rid of this conflict.
cheers
