i have just partitioned my drive and installed xp, but i
can't seem to get xp to recognise my modem.
firstly it calls it another name ;best fax moden. while my
98 sees it as generic soft56 fax voice speakerphone.
I have no trouble with connecting on 98 at all.
i've tried to find out if its just a compatability problem
but don't seem to be having any luck.
hope the question isn't too dumb but im pretty green at 98
never mind xp.
If you can help id be so grateful, thanking you in advance

have you installed WinXP drivers for the modem?
