Receiving Faxes

G

Guest

I have an internal FAX Modem AC97 Soft Data Fax Modem with Smart CP that came
on my HP laptop with the Windows XP OS. I configured the Microsoft Fax
Services. I am able to send faxes, but not receive faxes. I noticed others
having similar problems and was told to view the HCL list. I was not sure if
others were working with external fax modems different from the AC97. I
would like to know if there are incompatibility issues with the AC97's. If
so, what modems, or solutions did you find to resolve your problems receiving
faxes - aside from buying a fax machine. Do the internet faxes seem to work?l

I use Windows fax to send, and eFax Free (http://www.efax.com/) to receive.

Works fine for me.

eFax Free provides you a fax number (usually not near you) and routes the
fax documents to your email account.
