The modem is a:
Intel(R)536EP
PCI Slot 3(PCI Bus 0, Device 11, Function 0)
Mounted on Com3
I believe it is a 56K V92, that is all I know about it. Exceot that it works
with Windows XP and has caused no problems.
1.  Is it a winmodem?
2.  What is a real modem?
3.  Why might it be difficult to get it working?

Hoyt
