9854	2001-03-12 02:59:00	MODEM: Rockwell 56k ACF 11 FAX+DATA+VOICE MODEM PLUG AND PLAY When Windows 98 first detects this modem, it installs correctly to: BASIC CONFIGUATION 0008 Input/Output Range 0138-013F Interrup Request 10 COM 5 DEVICE MANAGER>MODEMS>(select)>PROPRETIES And everything is sweet as. On rebooting, Windows changes this to: BASIC CONFIGUATION 0007 Input/Output Range 02E8-02EF Interrup Request 10 Then the programs can not find the modem. In both cases the GENERAL Tab shows THIS DEVICE IS WORKING PROPERLY, and RESOURCES show NO CONFLICTS. Tried unchecking USE AUTOMATIC SETTINGS, it doesn't help. Also tried to CHANGE SETTINGS on BASIC CONFIGURATION 0007 to those of 0008 but Windows won't allow this - THIS RESOURCE SETTING CAN NOT BE MODIFIED. Changing the BASIC CONFIGURATION from 0007 to 0008 makes no difference either. Short of removing the modem each time I wish to reboot, what can I do?	Guest (0)

At this point it would be nice to say it fixed the problem but it didn't!! COMs 1-3 all show THIS DEVICE IS WORKING PROPERLY and NO CONFLICTS. These ports have nothing connected to them. As COMs 4-5 are vitual ports how do I check these? If you have a further suggestion, I'm eager to hear it. Thanks Again BURNZEE	Guest (0)
