My USR 28800 fax modem works ok on windows 95 but is brain dead on windows 3.11. It simply will not reset and has to be reinstalled every time I switch from windows 95 to windows 3.11 on a separate drive. Is there a modem reset program available to reset this modem ? THANKS

Is this an internal modem? ISA?
Win95 has some plug and play capabilities; Win3.1 has none; There may be some settings in your motherboard system BIOS that relate to PnP OS - set it for no PnP OS;
Otherwise, if you shutdown Win95, power off, then reboot to Win3.1 does it work?

Aloha! Richard.

Hi: I tried the ideas but none worked. The modem responds only to ATA ATH ATD and ATDT, any other commands are ignored.It is an external modem plugged in to a separate serial ide board configured as Com4, Irq3.
