Thanks Terry, now I must figure out how to get them on the other computer.
I guess I can d/l them onto a CD disk and then install that way. I need to
find out what version I had also. Do you d/l the modem exe. and also the
modem drivers exe file? I know I need the drivers, looks like two different
exe files I may need?
Thanks,
christy
