I have win98 se, win xp and win 2000 installed on my computers.
I was unable to send fax from any of the operating system.
To send a fax does the fax modem is required ?
I have Dlink 56000Kbps external modem.
Can you give me a step by step installation.

At other network where i have internet connection at the lan switch and no modem is connected to any specific computer. The third party software doesn't detect the modem after installation.

Please help me
name some of the third partywoftware

I have never seen a modern modem that isn't fax capable.I have had great success with WinFax Pro. It works great with MS Word. Have you tried File |Send To | Fax Recip within Word? It has a wizard that walks you through the process.

okay in win98 there is fax software on the cd under a directory called oldwin95 search for that and you can install it. in win 2k it is IN START/ PROGRAMS/ ACCESSORIES/ COMMUNICATION/ FAX AND YOU CAN INSTALL THE FAX DRIVER THERE AND FAX. ALL OF THESE PROGRAMS ARE LOCAL ONLY NOT FOR USE OVER A NETWORK/ WINXP HAS SAME FAX SERVICE BUILT IN JUST NEED TO ENABLE IT

good luck!
