I have a XP Home Service Pack 1 using an Intel (r) 537 modem.Every time I
receive or send a fax the computer freezes.The computer will not switch off
from the tower.I do my cold reboot at the powerbar switch.Then everything
turns to normal, including the fax console.
Please can anybody help

Please check whether the modem is a Microsoft certified
modem for fax as specified in

If it is there, check for any driver updates in the Intel
website. If so, try updating the driver. If not, forward,
the post to "Device Driver Development" newsgroup.
