XP upgrade/defunked modem

Hi,

Everything about my upgarde seems to be fine except now my
modem doens't work. It's a Compac laptop with a Compac
Presario 56K-DF modem. While it's recognized as there, it
say's "not functional", and with a bit more investigating
it says "firmware of device didn't receive resources."

After my install (during reboot)the modem was working
because my aol IM started up and at that point, I closed
IM out as the restart continued. From that point out my
internet (connection) button didn't work nor other
connection types. Any thought? Very frustrated.

Thanks
Rosemary

Rosemary;
Make sure you have the latest Windows XP drivers for that modem.
Get the driver from Compaq.
