419683 2006-01-10 03:58:00 I had to get my HDD replaced and Win XP reinstalled. Previously I could hear The modem dialling. According to specs it is a 'Planet 56k Internal Modem' How do I get the sounds back or is that something I will have to leave to the technician?. Pato (2463)
419684 2006-01-10 04:16:00 Recently I had my faulty HDD replaced and Win XP reinstalled. Previously I could hear the modem dialling. How do I restore the dialling noise or is this a job for the technician who built the PC. The specs show the modem as a "Planet 56k Internal Modem". The speaker is switched on!!. Pato (2463)
419685 2006-01-10 04:24:00 Have a read of this - FAQ #67 - My modem used to make a noise and now it doesn't (pressf1.pcworld.co.nz) and see if it helps. :)

419686 2006-01-10 04:27:00 I think,and as it is a long time since I used Windows I could be wrong but:
Right click on Modem in the control panel.Properties and you will get a pointer
that you move to adjust the volume of yr dialling sound.

Tick enable modem speaker.

If u use XP. Thats if you're on dialup.

419688 2006-01-10 04:46:00 Thanks Jen. I should have done that in the first place. Sorry about the duplicate post I didn't think the first one registered. If I can't get that right I don't think I will be able to fix the Modem sound eh?. LOL.

It is not the speaker I have checked all the obvious things.

Thanks but FAQ #67 didn't help as I have already tried all that. Also the double POST was in error. Sorry about that. Cheers.

419690 2006-01-10 04:55:00 the most comman cause of this is simply you havn't got the correct drivers installed.

also did you here the modem dailing from the modem or from the speakers ?

419691 2006-01-10 05:05:00 Or the hardware installer very nicely and "helpfully" set the configuration string to turn the modem speaker off. A lot of people don't like to hear the dialling sounds. ;) Graham L (2)
419692 2006-01-10 06:21:00 the most comman cause of this is simply you havn't got the correct drivers installed .

The drivers are the same as those installed previously . I am pretty sure that previously I could hear the modem dialing .
