180474 2003-10-04 23:15:00 Try www.aztech.com

The'yre the makers. Check and see which model of the modem you
have. Download the driver install and hopefully it works!

180475 2003-10-04 23:19:00 This Packard Bell site has modem drivers - you will need to find out exactly which model Aztech you have though.

180476 2003-10-04 23:20:00 how? i reformatted with the knowledge that eveything would be installed from hidden partitition so didnt bother looking at any details for anything...and everything installed perfect apart from the modem...
so all i knw is its a aztech one...

180477 2003-10-04 23:22:00 aztech only has 3 pci modem drivers..
and modem is a pci one so guess i download all 3 pci modem drivers and chuck onto cd-rw and let it pick it up itself :)

would that work?

180478 2003-10-04 23:25:00 You could pop the lid off the case and take a look at the modem for anyother identifying marks.

> guess i download all 3 pci modem drivers and chuck onto cd-rw and let it pick it up itself

Nope, Windows will quite happily install the wrong driver for you. You need to give it a bit more help than that :D

180479 2003-10-04 23:29:00 nah dont wanna open case, i dont have the confidence to open cases etc at the moment, iknow its probably a lil simple job but yeah...

i guess i do each one one at a time but how do i know it works?

180480 2003-10-04 23:30:00 Umm, well it'll be a waste of CDRW lol chuck them on a disk. The easier way, would be, is to open the case if u can. Look on top / the bottom of the modem. See if its the PCI MSP3885, MSP7850 (It should have a sticker somewhere on the modem). BUT if u cant well, ONE of the 2/3 will work. Try each one, then test the modem. Whichever one brings up the commands etc. use it! Spacemannz (808)
180481 2003-10-04 23:32:00 Also what version of windows did u install? XP might pick it up since it installs 1.3 gb lol there must be something there! Spacemannz (808)
180482 2003-10-04 23:36:00 yeah winxp...

it hasnt picked it up in 6 restarts...but the modem driver downloads...
the first pick was correct..its instlaled and working properly..

is that all i need to know that its the right one?
