I realize that this is a Linux forum but...
I have a customer who's modem quit working a couple of days ago. When I
looked at it the modem wasn't present in device manager. I figured it was a
bad modem and replaced it. When I booted the machine, plug-n-play did not
even realize that a new card had been installed. I tried another modem and
it still didn't work. If you manually install the drivers win will tell you
that the device could not be found. I thought that maybe the pci slot had
gone funky but a scsi card installed in the same slot was detected by win.
Has anyone seen behavior like this or had any experience with modem problems
in win2k?
Thanks,
Mark.
Nothing exactly like that but I did add a USB 2.0 card to system. It
wouldn't work in the first slot I put it in but it did work in another
slot. Have you tried a different slot for the modem? Did you try
add/remove hardware and explicitly try to install the card? I have never
actually had that work but it's worth the 5 minutes it'll take to try.
