winME & dial-up adapter

[JeanneD]

Hi
I have been running\installing ME for monnths now with not much problems (execpt older games) but now I just upgraded one of my home computers and it lost dial-up adapter, I went to network properties, ADD, no adapters there at all ...where did they go and how do I add it back in..tried re-adding all the serv and protocols again, took modem in and out, etc doesn't put it back. This is the first time I had to add it back in after the fact with ME, and maybe I am just a dope but I couldn't find where it is now...
HHHEEEELLLPPP
