The message is saying it's a driver problem -- did you recently install any other software that might be conflicting with the driver? If not, try going to the US Robotics website (while your connection is still up!) and making sure you have the latest driver for your model of modem.

What OS are you running -- 98SE or XP?

OS = Win xp
I tried gettin updated drivers from the USR website , they were awful ! not signed , and when I loaded them , the modem wouldn't work at all !! ugh :? thanks for the help Mah !

Trigon. Try removing the modem and turning on the computer. After it boots up, turn it off, and reinstall the modem. Windows will install default drivers for it, which should work just fine.

Trigon ?? Who's that ?? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: haha thanks Jarg !! I'll give it a go tommorow ..............Its time to open it up and get the dust out anyway 8)
