Lazy modem
LockedI recently installed W98SE on a new drive (Soyo K7VTA Pro, 512 Mb PC133 RAM,Athlon XP 1900, WD 80 GB drive 7200 RPM ATA100) and set up with the newest IE and Outlook Express with SP1. I use a dial up with an ISA Rockwell based 56K modem. It has a bad tendancy to “go to sleep” and just do nothing and then all of a sudden it takes off again for a short time then naps again. In my previous config on my old hard drive which I can still access and it doesn’t do this but I haven’t a clue what the difference is. I may have installed some utility file but it was long enough ago I don’t recall it. Any thoughts or clues, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Dial up is bad enough but to have to wait like this is very frustrating.
Thanx in advance for any and all help.
