Box will not stay checked

[avcomm]

Hello all, I have attempted to set up Windows XP Home
Edition to accept incoming connections through dial-up. I
went through the "Set up home or small office network"
wizard and when I am given the option to select the
device, I check the modem. The wizard completes with no
error, but when I tried to connect to the computer from
another line, it did not answer.
I right-clicked on the "incoming connection" and
clicked "Properties" and noticed that the modem was no
longer selected as the device. I check the box beside the
modem, click ok, and try again... no answer. So I go once
again to the properties of the "incoming connection" only
to find that the modem was no longer selected. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreicated.

Check with your manufacturer for newer modem drivers.... This has
been a frequently reported issue with older modem drivers...
