Hello All,
I want to switch external modems on my Win2000/Pro machine.
Do I have to "remove" the modem using the "Add/Remove Hardware" applet in
the control panel?
Or is it sufficient to power down the machine and switch the modems?
I may want to reinstall the original modem later. I am having a problem
with PCAnywhere on a dialup and I want to see if the problem is with the
modem, that's why I am switching modems. If switching modems does not fix
the PCA problem, I will return the original modem.
Thanks!
Also: I'm not sure if I have an installation disk for the modem I'm
switching in. It is an old Practical Peripherals, model PC288 LCD v.34.
Can I use a generic modem driver since I don't have the manufacturer's
driver? Actually, this modem probably predates Win/2000 so I doubt there is
a driver for this OS.
Thanks again.
