More precisely, you should BOOT TO DOS, and try a com program. Don't
use DOS prompt window. The reason is that some winmodems install an
intercept or some such thing that allows the winmodem to emulate a regular
modem on a com port for DOS apps, as long as windows is also resident.
I've specifically run into an AT&T model distributed in some HP desktop
systems that does this.
