If will mean it dials blindly, but it should get the speaker to work.

26113 2001-11-30 13:09:00 You may need to plug something into your actual modem from your soundcard to get any sound. My modem doesn't have a speaker in it like my old one, but there is a connection from the modem to the sound card and the connection noise comes through the speakers Guest (0)

One is in dialup networking/ properties/ modem/ configure.

And the other was in control panel/ modems/ properties.

26116 2001-12-01 03:06:00 Lost my modem sound a few weeks ago. Couldn't understand it all as all settings appeared correct. Finally found the problem - had 2 sets of speakers plugged in - 1 to the sound card and 1 to the modem. Guess which speakers had the power turned off? Duh! Removed the speakers from the modem and the internal speaker operated again. Guest (0)
