Default Windows 2000 professional doesn't recognize notebook's internal modem

Ihave a Sony VAIO PCG-961A notebook, and have just
installed Windows 2000 professional operating system.
This doesn't recognize the computer's internal modem. I
have gone through the new hardware option a few times. I
don't know enough to get around the problem. Can anyone
help?

thanks
A

Andrew,

May I suggest you try posting to a newsgroup supporting those running
Windows 2000 as hopefully someone there will be able to point your towards
the drivers you need. This newsgroup is for those using an entirely
different operating system, Windows Millennium (Win Me).

BTW, have you checked the Sony site for possible drivers for your Vaio
notebook? Note though that it can often be hard to find drivers for
notebooks and laptops where the installed operating system is different
from that with which the laptop was originally supplied.
