Hey, I need some input around here.

I have a Intel SE440BX2 motherboard with an ISA US Robotics 56k voice modem. the modem is an OEM one a got for about 70 bucks almost a year back. I'm running Win98SE. They just don't like each other!

The only stable speed I can connect on is 19.2K! I have tried almost everything to get a stable fast connect. I weird speeds like 33,333 or 45,333 or 36,000 or 38,666...you get the idea. Even at such speeds, the data transfer is slow. Nothing gets transferred for sometime and suddenly there is a burst of data streaming on in. I can't figure this out.

In windows, I have set it as COM2 and I disabled my second COM port in the motherboard through the BIOS. It takes an IRG of 3 and Range between 02F8-02FF (hex). The other cards I have is a CLTNT2 Ultra and a SBLive! Value OEM.

Can someone please give some pointers, software, tips anything on this!?!?1
