Try the "56k voice internal PCI (xx2884A)" Or more likely the "Older 56k voice internal PCI (xx2884-xx)" Edited by - Bob Starnes on 8/22/01 7:32:45 PM |
Edik Tl Posts: 5 Israel | Posted - 8/22/2001 7:30:25 PM no there is no irq conflics or stuff like that... |
Bob Starnes Tl Posts: 4360 USA | Posted - 8/22/2001 8:01:05 PM Windows may not report a conflict even though on exists, just need to be sure that nothing else is using the same IRQ as the modem. |
Edik Tl Posts: 5 Israel | Posted - 8/23/2001 1:10:32 PM i am sure that nothing is using the irq it is irq 3 and it is set in the bios too |
Bob Starnes Tl Posts: 4360 USA | Posted - 8/23/2001 7:04:54 PM This is an internal modem isn't it? Modem is using IRQ3, what Com Port is it on? What Com Ports do you have listed under Ports in the Device Manager?

Edik Tl Posts: 5 Israel | Posted - 8/24/2001 12:15:12 AM the modem is on com 5 and i have com1 and com2 in device maneger.... |
Bob Starnes Tl Posts: 4360 USA | Posted - 8/24/2001 11:57:05 AM Might try removing Com2 in the Device Manager and then disabling Serial Port 2 (or B) in the BIOS Setup. |
