clean out.. is there no other way. from all the sites i've gone to they've had the same problem but there's never a solution. is cleaning out the harddrive really going ot do it i dont' want to go through all that mess and then it still doesn't work. HAS ANYONE ON HERE EVER HAD THIS PROBLEM?
Try removing all the drivers for the modem then installing them again.
I'm pretty sure it's the drivers. I had this problem too. All I needed to do was update them.
i did. It won't install and I've been trying to find updated drivers all day but can find a single working one for a Rockwell HCF 56k Data Fax PCI Modem. I dont' want to have to end up buying a new modem and i then i dont' want to go back to Windows 98 : (Quote:

when you purchased your PC you should have also got a driver disc for your modem i had the same problem as you a few months ago all i did was installed the drivers again from the original disk if you havent got the disc try contacting the manufacturer you may find that your printer doesnt work
well thats what i did there is most probably an easier way but........
nope no driver disk. just the application recover disk and system recovery disk
i think i found a website if you can download just click HERE
let me know what happens :)
ya trust me i've been all over sites like that trying to find "working" drivers none of them work. I think it's going to be hopelessQuote:

drivers can be quite difficult to install are you sure you are doing it correctly it took me a few times even with the disk
i had your exact modem but when i sold my computer the disk went with it so i cant help you in that way
how are you online now?
have a go of this one click HERE AGAIN
maybe i am installing it wrong. I pretty much try to instal through the device manager. Is that wrong? and i've tried that one and there are also a lot of people saying it doesn't work but maybe they dont' know the right way either to install a driver
I just did this for a friend a few weeks ago and still have the site.
Roxwell Modem drivers for Xp.
HERE
Edit: yes try the device manager to install the driver. Make sure that if it is a .zip file that you create a new folder to extract it in and then when prompted, browse to that folder.
If that doesn't work, just remove it from device manager and try restarting and windows should find the new device.
It is showing up in device manager with a yellow exclamation point, correct?
that's where i've gotten one of the drivers out of the many i've tried. Maybe i'm doing something wrong how did you install it on his computer? and it did work?Quote:

Yes, I had to try 2 or 3 different ones until I found the correct one.
Make sure that you unzip the file in a seperate folder first.

I think it was this one.....Quote:

HCF 56K Data Fax PCI Modem driver Rockwell_XP.zip [more] Windows XP Aug 25, 2002
I have it on disk still, but it would take days to find it.
Edit: I found the disk, there are 3 drivers on it, I know one of them works.
Driver 1
Driver 2
The 3rd is for a v90, let me know how it goes.
my modem is v90
do you have the 3rd one
I still have to reinstall windows xp i uninstalled it since i can't get on the internet so i assume those drivers will only work when i have windows xp installed
ok i have to reinstall windows xp so i will probably be a while before i get back to you on if they work or not
Just let me know, I have another driver somewhere else. I will look for it just incase. No hurrys though, take your time.Quote:

Remember to unzip it in its own folder and when prompted for a drive, just browse to that folder. The v90_1 should do the trick, I think the other one is v90_2, so if it doesnt work the other one should.
there are a few modems that xp has issues with ie no dial tone/exclamation marks etc and i have found that windows 2000 drivers have sorted the problem on some of them, if the drivers that skelley521 still dont sort it download the 2000 drivers and try them, you have nothing to lose ;)
thanks skelley521 the drivers you gave me worked i'm operatin on windows xp :D I'm happy. Thanks for all your guys' help
I had this problem with my modem. All I had to do was install XPSP1 and it worked.
Glad to hear you got things sorted and thanks for letting us know.Quote:
