Hi Ellen,

Is that all that it showed?  It's not unusual for SOME commands to
be unrecognized, since Windows simply checks a predefined list of
commands.  If the modem returns results for SOME commands, then it's
talking to the computer ok.

Did you restart the computer after removing AOL and before
reinstalling?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
