This is odd, but try looking for any modem related software that may still
be installed. Perhaps there were support utilities with the old modem that
are forcing the drivers to be loaded.

I recently replaced my modem, due to inability to connect to the internet.
Well, when I installed the new modem (differnet brand modem and installed in
differnet PCI slot)the computer was still trying to install the old one. I
boot up the computer and it auto detects my old modem (HSP56 MR) which is
not installed at all, I removed it from the computer. I have to open device
manager and manually uninstall it every time I boot up. Now the new modem
(Lucent Win Modem) installed fine and it works fine. But why does it think
the old one is still in COM port 1? Jamie
