Find out the name of your modem's manufacturer, then go to the website of
the mfr. and look for a link to downloads. Be sure to get the most recent
driver, and that it is your exact model.
How to find the manufacturer:
Start / Control Panel / Phone & Modem / Modem tab

All i have is ;- softV92 data fax modem , provider microsoft , dated
18/7/2003, version 7.12.9.0. Have been to microsoft; looked at downloads,
tried every search possibility but drawn a complete blank.Any more ideas or
pointers?

Are you looking at the driver page, or the Modem page that I described? Do
you actually see something like:
"Microsoft softV92 data fax modem"
I have to question whether you went to the Modem Tab as I directed...
