170963	2003-08-27 23:27:00	You are very very welcome Curly - I have acheived a huge benefit from F1 and I too interfered in a string a while back- so it is tit for tat. This Connexant modem mentioned -if I uninstall a driver -= will I not be able to download another? :-)	effie C (772)
170964	2003-08-28 00:30:00	conexant driver-chip ID (www.conexant.com) this may or may not identify you chip as I can't see any info on ISA slots. It won't harm to run it or download the pdf info file for identifying modems. This is the chip I believe you have 1MB Rom (www.modem-help.co.uk) or 2MB Rom (www.modem-help.co.uk) The revision (30.1) is later than is listed on those two pages so it is a matter of tracking down the right one for firmware and drivers. This chip suports V90 or Flex so the right one has to be applied for NZ, I can't remeber whether Telecom support both (GF, does it make a diff?). Quickest way to sort this is to pop the hood and look- slot type, chip numbers, info on stickers and FCC ID if necessary (the latter can be harder to trace than chip #). HTH Murray P	Murray P (44)

170967	2003-08-28 01:19:00	Hi murry P- I went into that site aand nowhere can I see your assesment 0RCV560PF - etc Assuming you have correctly diagnosed the product and on looking at 3 pages in that site- now what? And Godfather- yes I did open up the 'puta and found absolutely no markings of any sort- it was back a week or so and I am nervous about assessing the colour etc of the slot, and thereby make a fatal error- any advice?Sorry folks- this is consuming your time but it IS appreciated effie c	effie C (772)
170968	2003-08-28 01:31:00	I'm back to this (to which I posted a link in the previous thread but got via a diff route this time) Whether it is a Lasat Safire or a rebadged and this is the closest AT16 is doing based on the chip, this I beleive is your modem. 560 V INT ISA PnP id: LASF441,ISAPNP\LASF441 Safire 560 Chipset: Rockwell ACF 56k 1 MB ROM Flashable: Yes Soft/Hard: Hard Freeserve: Good Upgrades at: start at this page; Windows 3.x, 95/98/NT 3.51 & 4.0, MacOS, documentation, .inf files, flash upgrades, other programs & miscellaneous Notes: Impressive Danish web site; nice paper too. An install wizard is available to test for V.90 compatibility. It gives a wrong result with Freeserve - upgrade anyway. Warning! The chipset comes in a 1 or 2 MB ROM, with internal and external versions, and voice options. BEWARE! as the correct version & type of flash is required or the modem will be dead, permanently (see Media Force & below). 08 Sep 00 Thanks to Bill Alexander for the sad story of the demise of his 560 V INT. ati4 showed "V1.00-K56_DLP" & ati6 a revision of 30.1. The flash reported his modem as suitable for upgrade, but still failed on the second module after an hour at 10%. The only unusual feature on his system is a blanked-out UART & Highest Speed showing "No response". [url=http://www.eicon.com/support/helpweb/lasat/product.asp?p=INT[Info & Drivers[/url] site. Cheers Murray P PS. Still trying to confirm the chip :(	Murray P (44)
170969	2003-08-28 01:43:00	Lasat 560 Info and Drivers (www.eicon.com) Look for Conexant or Rockwell and numbers on the chips, normally printed in small whitish lettering on the dark grey background of the chip (square or rectangular 1 to 2.5mm high 12 to 25mm across. Rockwell choips have a symbol/logo something like a reversed or negative of a peace symbol on them. Get all the info and post, draw a diagram of the modem so you can remember where the info is located on it. Cheers Murray P	Murray P (44)
170970	2003-08-28 01:49:00	Hi Murry P - I went off at 1/2 cock - found the site that assesses my puta and it confirmed I have aConnexant modem etc- but first I have to download and install Winzip 8.1 - am doing that - will let you know- no doubt with my luck by snail mailas my puta might blow up effie c	effie C (772)
170971	2003-08-28 02:19:00	I just hope I'm barking up the right tree, that I am barking, at all :), has nothing to do with my interest in computers, I think ?:|. Other posters have put doubts in my mind but, I'll stick to this Lasat/rebadged modem for the mo. Cheers Murray P PS. On your behalf, have queried Lasat/Eicon for assistance/confirmation in identifying the modem and chip. hope you don't mind, no names were used.	Murray P (44)
170972	2003-08-28 03:16:00	Hi Murry P - no - go to it! I would be being precious to compalin at this stage - if any- I went into the site for Connexant and it diagnosed and confirmed my modem was one of theirs- as I saw it I had to installWinzip 8.1 to be able to ccess the file- but now I am running round in circles trying to progress from there- no luck. One thing I DID See-it read the type of modem as for 05&98when I was in fact accessing the site using XP If this was the problem why would my XP be at home and on the same speed as Win 98?- in others words I don't need a specific w XP modem Or do I? effie c	effie C (772)
