[comp.dcom.modems] Internal Modem Problem

thsieh@bnrmtv.UUCP (Theodore Hsieh) (12/13/88)

I have purchased a 1200 baud internal modem via CompuAdd (a Mail Order
Company) for my XT with a 30mB hard card recently.  When I first inserted
the modem card in the system and tried to boot up the system, nothing
happened.  Then I changed the switching of the modem card to COM2 even
though nothing was using COM1.  This time, I could boot up the system and
I thought everything's fine.

The problem now came when I tried to dial a number out using the software
PCTALK III which came with the modem card.  When I entered the command to
dial a number, the screen responded 'Dialing to number xxx' when nothing's
actually happening.

Can anybody tell me what seems to be the problem?

Thanks.
