[gary_179]

first of all i want to say hi and thanks for any info i can get. i bought a compaq presario 1200 notebook off of ebay and it dont have the serial number on it so i cant be for sure on the exact model of it. i am just wondering what kind of modem is built into this. i have downloaded about 20 drivers but cant get none of them to work. i am using windows xp professional and i dont have any restore disc's with this. here is all the info i could find inside the laptop. a 2000n motherboard PWA p/n 42M060700 this is on the motherboard inside the memory expansion. then on the back side of the keyboard i found this model:950403Q1 s/n:2000 1509889 rev:001A vo us
p/n:50-100D99-00zz then there was a barcode sticker and it has this V042k4015nzxxxx and all of this was on the keyboard. i would appreciate any help on trying to find what kind of modem this is a driver for it in windows xp profesional. thanks for all the help guys

Try Everest Home Edition

This cute little program will tell you a lot about your PC.

Also try to get into the BIOS Setup and see what ROM family you have.

The parts site

http://partsurfer.hp.com/cgi-bin/spi/main?sel_flg=partinfo&template=main&cpric=&psrchmode=&partsrch=400445-001&submit.x=11&submit.y=5

lists a bunch of different PCs using your modem part number. Looking up one of them the 1600s says you have a Lucent V.90 PCI Modem. That's an Agere modem these days.

You might try:

Open hyperterm, open modem and type

Every command send part of identification to you.

Hi,

Is it possible, that you'll see a RJ female connector but no modem package is build in? Do you see that device as an unrecognized device in your OS (XP)?

[gary_179]

yes my os recognizes it in the device manager. i ran a program on the laptop called belarc advisor and it was right on everything, and it said my modem is a lucent 56K v.90 PCI DF modem i downloaded the latest modem from agere (830) but still not go. when i query the modem here is what i get

If you are able to talk to the modem then it should be installed correctly enough to work. What is the problem exactly?

[gary_179]

when i click on phone and modem in the controll panelit says"phone and modem control panel can not be opened. you may have a problem starting telephony service" also in the modem query where is says command not supported, i did a search on ggogle and it said it was related to the modem driver. also when i go to new connection wizard (windows xp)and try to make a new internet connection (setup manually) the "connect using a dial up modem" and the "connect using a broadband connection that requires a user name and password" are grayed out so i cant select the dial up option.j so any help you can give is GREATLY appreciated. thanks for all your help so far.

[gary_179]

i just called compaq and they said my model number is a 1200xl (i gave them the serial number belarc advisor gave me)

[Antoniov.]

Gary,
first at all your modem is PSTN modem so you can't open ISDN connection neither broadband connection!
I guess your modem and your driver work fine; you can make the follow simple test :
1) Connect modem to phone line
2) Open HyperTerm and connect to modem
3) Issue follow command:
AT&FX3&W
OK
Command is A T Apersand F X 3 Apersand W without spaces
4) Now you can dial a know number, for example a mobile telephone typeing this command:
ATDT
5) Called phone start ro ring

If test work, your problem is not driver but something else.

thanks for the tip. when i click on hyper terminal i get a error, here is what i get "windows has reported a TAPI error (80000048). Use the phone and modem options icon in the control panel to ensure that a modem is installed properly" thanks for any help on this

[Antoniov.]

Try opening COM port of modem, not mode directly (referred HyperTerm).
