30998 2002-01-13 01:48:00 Help! I have just reformatted my computer and re-installed everything, but now my modem is playing up... it allows me to connect to the net, but after about five minutes it stops responding then disconnects me. What can I do?! Guest (0)
30999 2002-01-13 01:58:00 It sounds like your modem driver may be having a bad day
you can try updating your driver.....insert your modem disk...or manufacturers disk and then click start/settings/controlpanel/ system/device manager/ look down the list till you see modems and double click on that...choose your modem and then click on the driver tab.
choose update driver and then follow the instructions from there.
You can also contact your manufacturer for details on the correct driver for your modem.
Many drivers can operate different modems but can cause all sorts of headaches if its not quite the right one.
If several drivers are available and you choose the wrong one then remove the disk and update the driver again...this will reinstall the windows basic driver back into your system....you may have to insert your windows cd
....thats if you are using windows of course
