If you know particular information about your modem, you can visit a web site such as:

www.driverguide.com
Login: drivers
password: all

There, you should be able to find the drivers you need for your modem and the OS that you are using.Paul M. Chavez

Buddy,

The information which you have provided is not sufficient to provide you with a solution. In order to obtain the modem drivers, I need to know the exact modem installed in your system. Depending upon the modem installed, you need to install the right drivers. However, to determine the make of the modem in your system, perform these steps:

In Windows 98 SE:

1. Right-click My Computer icon on the desktop.
2. Select Properties.
3. Click the Device Manager tab.
4. Scroll down to Modem.
5. Click the "+" sign beside Modem.

Here you will be able to find the name of the manufacturer of the modem installed in your system.

Anyways, revert with the model of the modem.

Regards,
Ramro Kayta.

Easy way to find drivers for your modem is
http://www.fujitsupc.com/www/support.shtml?support/softwaredownloads/notebooks/drivers_frm
select lifebook A series
"Windows XP" (DO NOT SELECT WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL)
If this does not solve, rebuildthe system to old state, then you can see the exact driver name and model of your modem. Search for the drivers on google.com down load them and install after reloading XP. Or you may down load the XP drivers from Fujitsu sites link as provided above, for the model prior to rebuilding the system with XP.
