Modem works for a while then the dreaded yellow exclamation point appe

[luke77]

I installed a new modem.

Everything is fine till a day or 2 later, and then device manager shows the modem

with that "yellow symbol" showing that it isn't working.

Any way to fix it permanently?

*** On a side note, I have noticed new problems ever since Service Pack 3 was installed.

Thanks.

I could not find any code number.

In Device Manager, you see the modem listed there with the flag on it. Right Click on the Device and click Properties. On the General Tab is a section titled Description. Post the message in that box.

For some reason, the problem disappeared.
