How do I restore Windows ability to manage network connections. HP Laptop, WinXP Home
I should have stated "manage wireless connections". I can plug into the router and connect OK, I just can't use/manage the wireless connections. I re-installed NM and was able to use the wireless again, but after 30 days NM wants money and then it disables itself if you don't buy it. It really sucks.
I tried Windows Wireless Zero Configuration service and it is not present on the machine. I also just added Service Pack 3 and I still do not have Windows Wireless Zero Configuration service. Since I had WZC prior to installing Network Magic, I can only assume that NM removed WZC. Is there anyway to recover WZC without wiping out the computer in it's present state?
Answer
You will need to reenable Windows Wireless Zero Configuration service. Right click your My Computer icon and choose Manage. Then highlight the Services icon under Services and Applications. On the right hand window look for the Windows Wireless Zero Configuration option and right click it and choose Properties. Make sure the startup type is set for automatic and click on the Start button. Windows will now manage your wireless connections. Hope this helps.

I support the answers you received so far from Joyce_B and Ted Pack.
You can also access the US databases of Ancestry.com for free at your local public library. Telephone your public library and find out where the main genealogy collection is kept for the public library system/network. It will probably be at the main/headquarters branch. That will be where you can go and access Ancestry.com (US databases only) by using a library computer.
I did check some of the Ancestry.com databases for you. According to the WWI Draft Registration card for your Vallie, he spelled his last name Steltz, plus he gave his birth date as July 8, 1877, birthplace: Cecil County, Maryland. In the WWII Draft Registration (the "old men's draft" - registration for men beyond the draft age, in case they needed to be called up for military service during WWII) for him, Vallie Roy Steltz, born July 8, 1877, he stated he was born at York, Pennsylvania (that could be either York County or the city of York in York County.)
Since the 1880 census record Joyce_B found for you (and which you apparently saw in a post from someone else someplace else) gives the parents of Vallie R. Steltz (I looked closely at the handwriting on the census ledger image - it is "Steltz" - a transcriber wrote it as "Stiltz") you will want to look for an 1870 census record for an Adam Steltz (maybe mis-spelled or mis-transcirbed "Stiltz" or something even farther afield - Stilz, Stilts, Stelts, Stills, Stilly, Stelly, Stelty, etc. - think of all the possible ways someone might mis-read poor handwriting and transcribe the name.) who was born about 1842 in Pennsylvania. He may have been living in Pennsylvania in 1870 or maybe in Maryland, where he and his family were living in 1880, or some other state.
If you don't want to take the time or energy to go to the public library in your area that subscribes to the Ancestry.com US databases, the public library system may also subscribe to the HeritageQuest databases, which also include US census records. If so, you can access the HeritageQuest databases through your library web site and logging into your valid library borrower account, You can telephone the public library and ask a reference librarian to talk you through accessing the census database of HeritageQuest. If you do not hold a valid public library borrower card, you will have to obtain one. You will need to bring a photo ID to the library or some other valid information to identify you. Ask a librarian what you need when you telephone the public library about HeritageQuest or the library to access Ancestry.com.
If you do choose to go to the library with the main genealogy collection, there may be some of those "old fashioned" things called books that a reference librarian in the genealogy section can help you with. Some of the books (or "hard copy databases" as I like to call them) will have genealogical information for Pennsylvania, the birthplace of Adam R. Steltz, father of your Vallie R. Steltz.
Please be aware that even in this electronic and Internet age, not all information is in electronic form and on "the web."

I did some more "lookin'." There was a Steltz family in York Co., PA, with the patriarch, Philip Steltz, Sr. (born about 1735.) He owned quite a bit of land in York Co. and Baltimore Co., MD. There is a multiple page genealogy for him and his descendants: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lsfeist/PSteltz/d8142.htm However, I do not find any listing of your Vallie/Valley Steltz/Stiltz or his father Adam R. Steltz, born about 1842, there. Eventually, with research, you may determine if your Vallie was a part of this extended Steltz family.
If you have not already done so, you may wish to post your query on one or more of the free (registration required) genealogy message boards:

(This message board had a lot of hits on Steltz Union (Bethlehem) Church in York Co. - church name and cemetery sometimes spelled "Stiltz." I believe that is the church Philip Steltz, Sr., mentioned above helped found.)

With luck, someone else researching the same Steltz/Stiltz family line or a related one will see your posted message and reply. You may have to be patient and wait years and years for any reply, however.
