I have installed winME and win2000Pro on a partitioned hard disk. Win2000Pro works OK, but winME can not find the modem, so i can not go on line using winME.
I have tried control panel ->modems or add new hardware or reistalling winME, nothing seems to work. Am i being a bit stupid here? Any help or advise would be much appriciated. Thank you.

Who manufactures your modem? You should go to their website and see if they have any patches/upgrades for your specific modem/model for WinME. Since the same modem works under 2000, you may need different drivers for WinME.

simply go to the add new hardware wizard like you said but don't allow windows me to search for hardware. you should manually add it by selecting have disk. Insert the drivers for your modem and win me will install the drivers. restart your computer and check the device manager and make sure your modem is listed with no conflicts.
