Does anyone have a dial-up modem that works on Vista?

The model ID is Modem1="HSP56 MicroModem" on the hgardware ID for XP-Vista. PCTEL is no longer making modems- sold out to Connextant- you may get info/support from them and find out if they are still making OEM modems like mine -"cheap" "superyooper" wrote: Hello all. I have a U.S. Robotics Fax Winmodem that isn't working properly since I installed Windows Vista Beta 2. It was recognized by the computer after I reinstalled the driver but then an error message comes up saying that the U.S. Robotics driver interface has stopped working and needs to be shut down. No matter what I do, the modem is recognized but the driver doesn't work. So, does anyone have a modem that does work with Vista or does anyone have any ideas on how to get around this? I got the modem to work for about a minute before the computer froze up and after a reboot the same error message came up! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks much in advance for your help! Thanks again! Dave I am having this issude with the same model. I am going to try to keep working on it. I hope that someone finds a work around. |
