I am still having modem problems on my XP, I have got a
speedcom internal pci modem and my comuter recognises it a
s an intel 536 ep modem for which I have tried the driver
off the cd and also downoaded the latest one from intel.
I am having trouble,
1) there is no modem connected icons on the taskbar
2) the line drops all the time
3) it takes about 6 attempts each time to connect
4) I have uninstalled modem and re-installed, there is
only one modem showing in phones and modems
5) I am unable to remove modem files in 'add & remove
programs' in control panel
6) There is no icons on the system for 'dial up
networking' is this normal?
7) In device manager, the modem is showing as installed
and working correctly on com 3.
8) Under the com ports in device manager, there is no com
3 displayed
9) On setting up a new connection, it now asks which modem
to choose, there is no modem showing.
It may be something to do with the software which I cannot
remove in add& remove programs but I do not know which way
to go.
I have had many problems with XP and am wondering if it is
worth all the hassle and considering going back to ME.
any ideas would be gratefully received
