A few days ago, I upgraded my computer from Windows 98 to XP Pro. When I tried to get on the internet (I use AOL), a message came saying that my modem is not plugged in. When I went to Device Manager, my modem was listed as an "Other Device", and there was a question mark beside it. When I uninstalled Windows XP and restored Windows 98, the modem worked again. Can someone tell me what's going on?
 
You need to install a XP compatible driver for the modem. Jym
