Monitoring Dial-Up Download Speeds ala Sysmon(Win9x) style?
Hi, Win2000 has been running great on my system, though there's only 1 major thorn in the bush. It seems like System Monitor from Win9x is gone. I need the real time updated graphs of Sysmon for my dialup upload/download monitoring.
Hi,

It seems like System Monitor from Win9x is gone.
I need the real time updated graphs of Sysmon for my dialup upload/download monitoring.
Did Microsoft hide it, move it to another program, rename it, or simply removed the above functionality in Win2000? Someone enlighten me please!
Thanks!

This took some time for me to find as it was deeply embedded in the windows help files anyway i have an answer for you but you must follow the directions very carefully to get this to work.
To create a custom monitoring console
Open Microsoft Management Console (MMC).
On the Console menu, click Add/Remove Snap-in.
On the Standalone tab, click Add.
In the snap-in list, click ActiveX Control, and then click Add.
In the Insert ActiveX Control wizard, click Next.
There is a short delay before the next dialog box appears; this is normal.
In Control category, click All Categories.
In Control Type, click System Monitor Control.
Click Next.
The System Monitor control provides the functionality of System Monitor.
In Select a name for the ActiveX control, type a name for the control, and then click Finish.
Note
To open MMC, click Start, click Run, and then type mmc.
Creating a custom console is useful if you want to have System Monitor hosted in the same console with Event Viewer or another tool.
