Sorry about 'stepping on your toes', I guess Staples/officemax will be 'my' fax program for awhile. Dang modem worked a year ago just fine in Kppp and emr.net's isp. So I know it works/ed back then. And I have the modem cable, not a serial cable hooked up as I didn't take the cable out of the modem end!! Very stable modem, you could take the phone off the hook and still surf...for hours..just hear the 'ssssh' in the phone. Geez, most drop it either immediately or within a minute or so. Only a V90, but hey, faxing takes 13.4 max, usually 9600. Oh, well. Thanks tho and etc. Ed --- Craig White wrote: > On Fri, 2005-02-04 at 17:29 -0800, ec wrote: > > --- Craig White wrote: > > > > > > snipped > > > > > > > So that leaves only 2 real options... > > > > > > - buy a real hardware modem, internal or > external > > > that actually uses an > > > IRQ or > > > - search for information regarding your specific > > > chipset in your 'win > > > modem' on the website - something like > lin-modem.org > > > and do whatever is > > > necessary to make it work.
