I've been in the process of making the move to Windows Me over the last couple of weeks testing and ironing out whether or not things I used on 98 would work in Me and so now I'm down to my last problem. I have established that my modem (An ISA V.90 56K Voice modem w/fax internal w/Rockwell 5614Jx(G) drivers), which works fine in 98 acquires a small problem with Windows Me. Also, the phone line is routed through the modem before being connect to the phone. Now let me clarify, I have eliminated the possibility of software issues, driver issues, and motherboard setting issues. So I know it lies in somewhere with Windows Me, now to the problem, whenever i receive an incoming call & my computer is on (but not on the internet, I only have one phone line.) when I answer the phone my computer / modem kicks in and begins to try and communicate as if it was trying to send a fax or connect to the internet, and therefore interupts the phone call. This problem does not occur when I make a call however.
When I try and install my modem after a clean format and install for WinMe onto the HDD WinMe cannot detect the modem however if I install the driver and go to the diagnoistic properties to see if the device is working properly it says that it is with no problems, which is semi-true because I have no problems connecting to the internet, which means that the modem is working fine. Soooo, my question is what should I do now to try and find a solution to this problem?
P.S. I have a second computer, which has WinMe and while on does not present this problem nor trigger it for this computer. I also have Call Notes, however I do not believe this is to blame either. The reason I have eliminated these from the possible causes is because this environment existed before my move towards WinMe and while using 98 I did not encounter this problem.
Thanks for everyones input and help.
