The Agere PCI Softmodem in my Compaq Presario SR1620NX keeps giving me
this
error. The modem is listed on the HCL for Windows XP Home and is the
factory
installed modem. Just to make sure, I downloaded and installed the driver
from HP's website.

The modem dials, handshake occurs, and it looks like the fax is
transmitting, but about a min later the error msg appears. I have tried
several fax numbers, they all produce the same error.

Troubleshooting instructions and diagnostics show all is OK. Help!
