Win XP Pro Fax Doesn't Track Anything - !!FIXED!!
Let me know if it continues to work. I thought that was one of the causes we
had already identified. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Jilljeanne" wrote in message ... Russ, I uninstalled McAfee's Privacy Service today as well as removing and reinstalling "fax services" from the "add/remove components" in the control panel (this I have done twice before to no avail as to getting the fax monitor to work). In any event, lo & behold, my fax monitor is working today! I don't know if removing Privacy Service or reinstalling fax services rectified this problem. I'm almost afraid to turn off my computer tonight for fear that the fax monitor won't work again when I start my computer tomorrow. I just wanted to keep you updated on this recent turn of events. Thanks, Jill |

Win XP Pro Fax Doesn't Track Anything - !!FIXED!!
Russ,
Just wanted to let you know that my fax monitor is working for 4 days in a row now after uninstalling McAfee's Privacy Service on 5/7. Had to of been the culprit all along. Anyway, I now have a problem receving faxes. I get a "attempt to receive a fax has failed" & "an error occured while receiving a fax" messages. I have a Conexant D850 56K V.9x DFVc Modem on my computer after updating my driver. Prior to the driver update I had a Conexant SmartHSFi V.9x 56K DF PCI Modem on my computer. I was unable to receive with either of these modems. At one time I did have BVRP's Fax Tools software installed when I was having problems with the fax monitor and I did receive a fax on one o ccasion, had no problem. I was wondering is there some sort of adjustment or setting that I can make or change in order to recive faxes with Fax Console? Thanks, Jill |

You might want to make sure the modem you are using is compatible
with Windows XP if you haven't already. The list of modems certified by Microsoft is at this site: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/catalog/default.aspx? "Jilljeanne" wrote in message ...

This will be a tough one to solve. Windows XP Fax is very intolerant of many
modems and will throw this error message with modems not on the Windows XP HCL list (and even some that are). So Victor's suggestion is spot on. If your modem is on the HCL list, then the problem is most likely from setting the other fax program wrote to the modem and did not relinquish. Windows XP Fax does not work well when other fax software has been installed. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Jilljeanne" wrote in message ...

Thank you Victor & Russ. Sorry I haven't posted sooner but yes my modem is on the HCL list. I wanted to let you know that my problem is now fixed! I had a defective modem. I connect to the internet with DSL so I was not aware that my modem was defective. (
Makes me wonder when I updated my modem driver a couple of months ago if that caused my modem to become defective) Anyway, Dell sent me a replacement modem last week. I can now receive faxes with no problem. My fax monitor is still working too, ever since I uninstalled McAfee's Privacy Service. Thanks for all of your help. Take care, Jill |
