packman 0 Posted March 19, 2003 I use an external 56K modem on my Win2K machine. It's a modem of German manufacture and performs quite well. Unfortunately, a reliable driver for it was never produced and I constantly find that, when I need to reinstall the modem (such as when reinstalling Windows and my apps), TWO instances of the modem get installed, rather than one. I've tried all sorts of methods and tricks to avoid this but to no avail. I'm wondering if the problem is due to a semi-permanent setting in the Registry and, if so, how I might correct it. The modem's called "Microlink Office" and the driver is a beta driver for Win2K [censored] back to 2000. A more up-to-date driver isn't available. There's one available in Windows 2K itself but that one's a very basic driver and makes no difference, in any event, if I try to install that instead. I find that, whichever way I install the beta driver, in Device Manager I end up with "Microlink Office #2", rather than just "Microlink Office". I've experimented ad nauseum, uninstalling and reinstalling the driver but I still end up with #2. I find that, rather than Windows picking up the extracted modem driver file mdmelsa3.inf and installing just that (I use "Update Driver" and point it to the extracted location), it goes to C:\winnt\inf instead and picks up a Windows driver called oem5.inf. It then adds this on top of the required driver. Unfortunately, even though I've tried temporarily removing the oem driver from Windows, Device Manager still ends up as "Modem #2". I've looked for the modem settings in the REgistry and found the location as: HKEY LOCAL MACHINE/System/Current Control Set/Services/Modem/Enum There, I find: (Default) -------REG_SZ --------(value not set) 0----------------REG_SZ---------SERENUM\ELS8548\4&107bc923&0&0000 Count----------REG_DWORD----0x00000001 (1) Next Instance---REG_DWORD----0x00000001 (1) That second line looks sensible, as ELS8548 is the required driver command set (I think), but I've no idea what those other Registry entries mean. There's also a Parameters folder in the Registry and there it says: Default----------REG_SZ---------(value not set) With two drivers installed for the modem, it still appears to function okay, but clearly this is undesirable. Can anybody suggest what's going wrong and how I can fix it? Whenever I uninstall the driver, to try again, I make sure I delete all other entries for that modem (including the ISP account). It's those Registry eniries I'm not sure about. Share this post Link to post
DS3Circuit 0 Posted March 19, 2003 That is a good one .... I would wait for APK, DosFreak, or another forum member to take the floor on this I am curious myself of the fix. Share this post Link to post
packman 0 Posted March 20, 2003 Well, AlecStaar, with what you've stated so far, I'm none the wiser. What I'm particularly wondering about are those listings in the Modems\Enum folder of the Registry. Should it be reading "Next Instance", for example? I've used this modem for something like 3 years now and, although it's always been a bit hit-and-miss to get the Win2000 driver (mdmelsa3.inf) installed and showing properly in Device Manager, it HAS shown correctly on many occasions. But of late when I've been trying to install it, I get "#2" EVERY time. That suggests to me that there's a background record of either mdmelsa3.inf or of the Windows default driver permanently left in the configuration somewhere. And that's why I'm wondering about the Registry and whether if I deleted the appropriate line in the Registry it would correct the matter. Share this post Link to post
packman 0 Posted March 21, 2003 AlecStaar, how do I copy and paste the contents of the mdmelsa3.inf file to this topic? Please excuse my ignorance. Share this post Link to post
packman 0 Posted March 22, 2003 AlecStaar, here are the contents of the mdmelsa3.inf file. There's obviously lots of redundant lines here, as far as useful analysis goes. Let me know if you spot anything that might account for this 'driver' not getting installed properly. Yes, it's an INF file and you can muse over semantics but, as far as Windows is concerned, it's treated as a driver and, when successfully installed, shows as a driver from Elsa and is v1.0.0.7. Incidentally, in the same temporary folder into which the modem exec file is extracted, a file called Elsawave.inf exists. That also gets installed. Judging by its name, it's a sound driver of some sort for the modem. ; Windows Modem Setup File ; Copyright © 1993-2000 ELSA AG ; Manufacturer: ELSA AG (sl/hd) [Version] Signature="$CHICAGO$"

packman 0 Posted March 29, 2003 AlecStaar, Sorry I've not responded for some time. Been needing a clear weekend when I can experiment. I tried editing the mdmelsa3.inf file, as you suggested, putting a semicolon at the start of the line. I tried it separately in both the Strings section and the Models section but it made no difference at all. Device Manager still listed it as "Microlink Office #2". I suspect that that Registry listing has got an extra entry and that it gets left there irrespective of whether you uninstall the modem. Looking at the earlier description of the Registry entry that I gave in this thread, have you any idea as to how I can delete a certain line, like the line that begins "Next Instance..."? Is it just a matter of highlighting the line, rt-clicking it and choosing Delete? How could I replace the line, should that mod not work? Can I just type the line in, for instance, or is there a specific Add command to use? Share this post Link to post
