Compaq Armada Laptop.  Yes, during this exercise I installed the latest CAE
service pack.

I finally got it working, by uninstalling CAE, then running the EZ-Setup
program, which apparently reconfigures Operations Console from scratch, then
upgrading CAE to the latest 4.5 level.

Thanks to everyone for insights and suggestion.  Whatever EZ-Setup did
(created a new Dial-up Networking component, for example), that's what
Operations Console should do, IMHO.

The idea of disabling the radio buttons in the setup wizard, used to select
the type of functions needed, without explanation, is a serious useability
problem, IMHO.
