Hi Chris -

Ok, thanks for that clarification, so it does look then that I need the 
modem driver, but Please Steve do come back on this one, or send me that 
driver, because I've been looking again on the Nokia website, and it does 
say that all the drivers are within PCSuite, but what it does say is that 
modem drivers need Windows 2000 or XP, and there doesn't seem to be an 
additional driver for Vista, but surely there must be?

Over to you Steve if it isn't too much of a liberty <smile> -

Andy

| Hi Andy, not Steve, but if the modem wasn't installed it would only go as
| far as "opening port..." before displaying an error message. Hope that
