Disabling the modem in the Device Manager might solve your problem. While
you're in that area, find out the name of the driver file for your modem.

There was a problem with PC Anywhere(can't remember the
version) that made it incompatible with W2K. You had to
run the install routine and BEFORE you take the machine
reboot, had to go to the web and download and install the
patch for it from Symantec; THEN reboot and it would work
fine. You might try a "standard modem" driver native to
W2K for your modem. It might work. Hope this helps.
