detecting my internal modem
You do realise that you are posting to a newsgroup supporting those
running Win Me rather than XP? Turning to your problem. You say that XP has not detected your hardware. Open the Device Manager. Do you see your modem and sound card listed but with a yellow exclamation point? If so then XP has detected the hardware but the drivers haven't installed correctly. Alternatively do you see one or more large yellow question marks alongside "Unknown Device" or similar. If so then again XP has detected your hardware but doesn't have the necessary drivers. My advice would be that using another PC with net access go to the laptop manufacturer's web site and look for the section containing Downloads, select your model laptop and XP as your operating system and then download the missing drivers. Transfer these to your laptop, perhaps using a usb thumb drive, and install them. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Windows chatapa u26832@uwe wrote: i formatted my laptop.. sadly i lost my recovery cd.. now i can't use my internal modem, XP haven't detected my internal moded as well as my audio card? worst i lost my installer for both hardwares.. |
