>(rule of thumb) If it's external, it'll work, There are a few things to watch out for. There was the guy tring to get a 14400 external modem to work that had the serial line speed set to 115000. The modem would talk no faster than 56k. Also if you have a 16450 uart you can't usually go faster than 56k. So you might have to watch what uart speed you specify. >(rule of thumb) If it's ISA with jumpers, it'll work, NOT always true. I have seen winmodems with jumpers!!!! >(rule of thumb) If it's PCI, it won't work, Not always true. There are one or two PCI modems that work. The ones that are NOT memory mapped MIGHT work. >(rule of thumb) If it's ISA with no jumpers, it might >work, You will need isapnp for this one ===== Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or ..... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
