Xena I had the same problem with the modem... I was lucky though I had one that wouldn't work under Win 98 properly. I had to re-install it at each boot up, so I bought a new one.. When the new one wouldn't work in Win 2000 I tried the one that wouldn't work under Win 98 and bingo wrks like a charm... Same brands as well... Such is the joy of owning a puter.
