Win2k and Modem Help

[webdave 0]

For the life of me I can not get my Creative Labs Modem Blaster DI5601-1 to work. The modem works fine in Win98 but whenever I boot into Win2k I have problems. Whenever I try to dial I get an error saying, "Error Could Not Open Port".

 

I have tried setting the jumpers on the modem to non PNP mode and that didn't work either. Win2k detects the modem fine when I set it to PNP mode and installs it without a hitch, but I still can't get it to dial.

 

I am using Win2K build 2195. If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

This could be caused by a common Windows 2000 issue. It happens because when windows 2000 boots, windows 2000 detects again all COM ports.

 

If you install a modem, and then you turn it off, next time you start windows 2000 won't find you modem, and so, it won't attatch it to a COM port.

 

This can be fixed by just turning on your modem before you boot windows 2000.

 

If you have no success...well, good luck then!
