All worked well until last week I had to get a new hard drive installed as the old one crashed in a heap. Now when call diversion is activated and I try to connect to Paradise on dial up, I get a message - "No dial tone. Make sure modem is correctly connected to the computer and phone line". When I disable call diversion, I can dial up as normal. Anyone any ideas as to why this is now occurring. Running XP home on dial up to Paradise. Thanks Smithie	smithie 38 (6684)

Diversion will be "modifying" the dial tone, and the modem does not recognise it as a dial tone.	godfather (25)
