WHEN TRYING TO ENABLE RAS ON MY WINDOWS NT 4.0 OPERATING SERVICE I AMD ENCOU NTERING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM: THEIR USED TO BE A INTERNAL MODEM LINKED TO THE COM 1 PORT. THE MODEM FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON STOPPED WORKING NO DIAL OUT/RECEIVE CALLS. I THEN CONNECTED AN EXTRENAL MODEM(DUXBURY) TO THE EXTERNAL SERIAL PORT. THE RPOGRAM DOES NOT SEE THIS PORT.UNDER THE RAS SECTION ADD/INSTALL MODEM COM 1 STILL SHOWS THAT THE OLD INTERNAL MODEM IS LINKED TO IT. WHEN I REMOVE IT THE SYSTEM SAYS THAT THEIR ARE NO OTHER RAS DEVICES TO ADD.
HOW DO I GET THE OLD MODEM DISCONECTED FORM THE COM PORT. I HAVE UNDER CONTROL PANEL/MODEMS REMOVED THE INTERNAL MODEM FROM THE SYSTEM. AFTER EVERY CHANGE I RESTART THE COMPUTER TO NO AVAIL THE OLD INFO STAYS AND I THINK THIS PREVENTS ME FROM BEING ABLE TO ADD A NEW MODEM. THE COMPUTER IS ALSO AUTOMATICALLY ADDING A COM3 FOR SOME REASON? THIS MOMENT IN TIME I CANNOT UPGRADE TO A MORE RECENT SYSTEM(XP PRO)
THANKS
ALEX
