I am using Windows 2000, and every day or two, the operating system stops recognising the modem, and requires that the drivers be loaded. I run the setup, re-boot the machine, and the modem works fine. Another day or two will pass, and it loses themodem drivers again. Any ideas?

HI,
If you have not done so already...
1.When your modem is working, download the latest drivers for the modem and save them to disk.
Remove your modem from device manager.Restart you pc
2. when your modem is working, run windows update via internet explorer.
3. visit the modem manufacturers web site for any known issues with 2k

i had problems with the win lucent modems. the only way i was able to get the problems to stop was to get a new modem.also if you have recently change internet providers the provider may not be completely compatable with the modem.
