Howdy, Great Guru's of the Net! :) Dunno if anyone will be able to help with this, but I figure that maybe someone has come across a similar problem during their travels. I have an IBM ThinkPad (380D) running a Xircom combo Ethernet/modem card. Normally this machine sits on a desk, and I don't think the modem has ever been used before. The Ethernet works fine. I'm trying to get the modem working, but for some reason, I get a no dialtone response when I try to dial out. On another ThinkPad this card runs fine, though a newer combo card in the original ThinkPad finds it unable to locate modem. I've tried just about everything I can think of (driver updates, flash bios, re&re) but this modem just doesn't want to work. Under 95's phone dialer I get an "in use by another application" error, but nothing is running that should affect it. Any ideas anyone???? Thanks Much!
