I'm looking to sell some modems, but I think I'd be better off if I included the drivers ;)
can you take a look at these pics and tell me if you know what brand they are so i can go find drivers for them

well, if you do a search on some of the search engines, you might be able to find the manufactures, with the model# or the FCC ID as search text. as far as I can tell, those 4 are all win modems. and the cost of the winmodem are really low nowadays, it might be tough to sell them.. the connexant might have a hardware data pump, but I'm not too sure about that. and since a lot of OEMs use PCtel, Lucent, and connexant chipsets, it's hard to tell who makes it. and this is the first time I've seen an ESS chip on a PCI board.. I've only seen those on notebook before.

After searching windrivers.com:

1. I hear all Lucent-based winmodems can use generic Lucent drivers

2. This one looks like a hardware US-Robotics modem. The driver is Somewhere around here - look on the modem itself for the model number.

3. Some Conexant (formerly Rockwell) - based Winmodem. I had luck using drivers from Zoltrix on these, but you should test them before selling.

4. This looks like a hardware modem. The chipset is the big chip with the "COM Port Settings" sticker on it. I'm guessing it's a Rockwell chip underneath. Maybe you should peel the sticker (and stick it on the back of the PCB).
