Cannot send outgoing faxes

[Alison]

I have a problem sending faxes. I was successfully using the Windows XP fax utility for sometime and then I installed SP2 (RC1, build 2096) and it stopped working. I assumed that there must be a bug in SP2 and so I removed the SP but the fax utility still
doesn't work. The modem itself works fine.
How can I fix this?

Ask in the beta group.

Where is the beta group - i.e. within which category?

That information is not public. It should be with your beta testing
instructions.

How do you know its locked up? What symptoms do you see when you try to
send? What error messages do you get? Do you see any errors on the event
log? We need more information, please.

Make sure that you have an active Dialing Location for your modem.
Without a Dialing Location, Windows XP will not know what prefixes,
country code or area codes to use when dialing.
