Nizami...most dialup modems are built around chips made by Conexant, PCtel and others and are known as "soft modems" or HSP modems (host software processor) because your PCs processor actually does most of the work. Take the modem out and look to see what chip it's based on and also make note of any other numbers you see, then go to Google and do a search on them. Sometimes you may have to try a few to find one that works for you. Of course, you'll have to do this from a PC that has internet access. Save several on one or more floppies and try them out. A good place to start is conexant.com if it's a Conexant based modem. They don't make modems, just the chips, but they have a bunch of generic drivers that usually work well. If no luck there, try driverguide.com...Larry
