I've returned around 5 or 6 modems due to device conflict
with my video card; they're actually sharing the same
IRQ. I have tried to reinstall Win XP and I still come up
with the dreaded 'blue screen". In addition, Computer
hangs or freezes whenever streaming video is played.
HELP! What seems to be the problem here? I've even
emailed the motherboard's manufacturer and a reply never
was sent. I know hte PCI slots are fine since my wireless
network card is in one of them.
 
You may want to try an external modem. I, frankly, prefer them, anyway, as
they do not use the computer's power. There are both USB and Serial. I
like the serial as, to me, they are more reliable. There are several good
ones out there but go to a review site to find which ones are right for you.
