Hi there,

Would like to know , where in registry is modem volume
being updated or is it being updated here everytime we
adjust it. If not where. Pls advise.

Would like to find out as I have previously created an
image of my PC already but am curious to know if I intend
to make changes to the modem volume, in oreder not to re-
create the image again, What can I do.

Cheers,
Alex

Depends. Some (at least) modems store volume settings internally.
Therefore it's not sure that your driver does so in registry.

Otherwise I'd expect it in
HKCU\Software\<brand>\<modem-name>\settings
or alike.

I've tried searchin HKCU which is wat u have given but
nothing...pls advise.

No fiddling with registry is usually necessary. Go into Device
Manager/Modems/Advanced, and in the "Extra initialization
commands" field put an M0. That's the letter M followed by
the number zero. Click OK to save your change.

so wat does M0 do & mean?

will set the volume directly: AT M0
lot of modems have only small discrete values allowed:
off- low-high M0/M1/M2

concerning the Lucent modem:
it's not a usual modem with a built-in speaker.
Instead it's a "soft" modem which consists in a DSP which is
responsible for the data transfer,
a generic modem "driver" software which is loaded into the DSP
either at boot time or as soon as you open the device for the first
time.
And there's a sort of overlay which "routes" the commands from
Windows to either the modem's DSP or (in case of the speaker's
volume) to the built-in speaker of your notebook.

If you use the kernel program from Lucent which is responsible for
the DSP, it doesn't contain any settings which control volume,
just because the modem part has no volume.

I didn't find such control values in the registry, when I was
looking for them a couple of years ago.
I remember that there was a number of hex values changing, but I
could not find a direct relation.
Maybe there are INI-files or alike which hold initialization values.

If say I have my image ready already & I need e.g. 20 set
to be set the same, I think there should be a way to
update my image rather than setting "M0" on every
particular individual set I have. right?

Thanks

Hi again,

I m trying to enable (check) Digital CD playback on every
system with min changes to my I image I created as I have
several Laptops to handle so individually enabling it is
inefficient. comparing registry before & after shows alot
of differences alike to the modem volume I discuss with u
b4. pls advise on the easiest way you can think of.

Thanks mate.

I dealt with those modem settings, too.
Even tried to just blindly set them according to the differences
which I found - but it did not work.
Therefore I guessed that it's not enough to set the registry values.
Any action is required which must evaluate the settings, too.
This is most certainly a property of the Lucent driver.

An approach to solve this might be to call the API functions of the
driver directly. There should be documentation available.
Even, if it isn't, there is good chance to find the correct call by
direct investigation on the dll. But that's stuff for advanced
programmers...
