Setting Up YahooBB
All you have to do is connect a modem between
your PC and the phone
jack in your house.
Then you can immediately
enjoy the Internet!
If you cannot connect
to the Internet after
simply installing
the modem, you will
probably
have to make some
changes to the network
configuration of
your PC by following
the
instruction below.
The following links
direct you to YahooBB
Official Hpmepage.

setting up your
non-Japanese OS.
Note: The enclosed CD-ROM can be used for
Windows Japanese version only. If your computer
runs non-Japanese OS, try the manual setup
mentioned above instead of using the CD-ROM.
