I have a US Robotics 56K Fax Modem which I know does work on my system.
My cousin has a Lucent WinModem on his WinXP system and as a result of a
problem with it, ie not working, he has borrowed my modem.
His system is a HP Pavillion running WinXP. The Fax Modem is detected
correctly and setup by WinXP, and I have removed the Lucent Win Modem
from the list in Device Mangler.
When we try to dial up a connection, the modem is reported as
a/ not configured correctly or in use by another device, or
b/ no dial tone detected.
I have not opened up the case, as the fax modem *was* detected and setup
by winxp ok. Everything looks alright and I can't see why it wont dial
up or no dial tone. When the modem is removed from the phone socket and
a telephone plugged in there is a dial tone, so why not the modem?
Any ideas please?
Thanks
