| 237692 | 2004-06-27 03:25:00 | I know this is an old thread but still current with Stu and I. We have removed all entries to do with modem, taken the modem card out, rebooted, shut down, put the card back in and on boot up still comes up with "Lucent winmodem installation disk" not found. We have tried the drivers on a floppy but the system (win 98se) still wants the installation disk. We've got the driver, and going to try a generic one from Agere next, but is doesn't do the task of the installation disk. Can anyone help here? I've looked on the net for an installation disk but all I get is drivers. Am I barking up the wrong tree here? Any comments appreciated . mc |

| 237693 | 2004-06-27 04:20:00 | You probably need a .INF file as well as the driver, so the MS standard installer will know what to do. | Graham L (2) | ||
| 237694 | 2004-06-27 04:32:00 | These are the instructions for the generic driver installer, it doesn't need any other disks or files. The modem is named Agere so you will have to select it in your dialler properties rather than the original brand name. Downloading the modem830.exe to the c:\windows\temp directory or a floppy drive a:\ Close out your internet connection and exit all other applications/programs Double click "My Computer". Double click on the drive and directory where the file is saved. Double click the "Modem830.exe" file. From this point you should start to see the file self extract into the c:\windows\temp directory. A welcome screen will appear asking you "Do you want to install the drivers?" Click the "ok" button to continue with the installation or the "cancel" button to abort the installation. If you click the "ok" button, the modem driver will begin to install. When installation is completed please reboot your computer. |

| 237695 | 2004-06-28 01:10:00 | Thanks a mll. I've got modem830.exe of a floppy. We'll give it a shot. Getting to be a long and interesting exercise all this, thanks for your posts. | mark c (247) | ||
| 237696 | 2004-07-02 02:41:00 | We loaded the modem830.exe off a floppy and it installed alright but now windows comes back at us with "Modem not found" all over again. Stumped, baffled and puzzled. Part of the problem is that stu is on solar power and in winter there's not enough going into the batteries to fiddle around very long so I am going to get him a spare computer to use and have another go when there's more power. Thank you all for your help but this one didn't work. Tsk. Cheers mc :) |
