Is there still an irq problem with XP if i want to have more than 2 internal modems working at once? I am taking transactions and would like to put 4 internal pci modems in a box but they all need to be available at the very same time? Is that a possibility without a multi-modem device?

Thank you

Sure, As long as you are using PCI modems. PCI shares resources so you can stick as many modems as you want in. (9 i think is the max) Hope this helps.

Or you could talk to your phone service provider about adding a multiplexer. I have a client (an answering service) that runs their office with a 486 that has 7 8bit phone cards in it. Works for them!
