If anyone can help I would be greatful. Windows Fax is not available in Vista Home Premium. If you don't want to upgrade to Ultimate (rather silly to spend so much for just one thing), use third-party software. Some people have reported good results with Snappy Fax.

Setting up fax
For those with Vista Home or Basic, there are a number of alternatives:
Snappy Fax http://www.snappysoftware.com/ RKSFax http://www.rkssoftware.com/rksfax/overview.html VentaFax http://www.ventafax.com/ FaxTalk FaxCenter Pro 7.5 http://www.faxtalk.com/products/ftfcp/index.htm I've seen reports that the free version of BVRP works with Vista also: http://www.usr.com/bvrp/bvrp.asp BVRP PhoneTools Since the above comes bundled with new USR modems, I don't know if it will work with non-USR modems. You can also send Faxes via your Internet connection provided you are willing to pay for an Internet E-Faxing service: http://www.slipstick.com/addins/serv...tm#internetfax Personal Fax Services - Internet Fax http://www.savetz.com/fax/ FAQ: How can I send a fax from the Internet?

Thanks again, Rickpo. -- rickpo
