Whenever the telephone rings, Windows XP Home Edition
freezes. I've never seen such a weird problem. Any ideas
on how to fix it?

Thanks, Travis
 
Travis,

No help, I'm afraid, but have similar problem in that XP
(perhaps) causes telephone line to loose dial tone. What
type of modem are you using? Is your PC a Dell by any
chance? What SP for XP?
 
1/
usually an indication of 'alignment of svc devices' - ie
a/
'caller id' and 'message machines' - should be in
front of the computer/and receiving the 'line in'
b/
3rd party devices for
'handling calls during computer online connection'
should be receiving the line in'
2/
double-chk any 'call waiting svc fr telco'
and the devices
and
take it fr there

Jessica,

The PC is not a Dell but an IBM. The modem is an internal
IBM PCI V.90 56 Data/Fax Modem. I'm not sure what you
mean by SP.
