I recently installed XP SP2 and find that I can't send faxes anymore. I am
using a dialup modem on XP home (win98 upgrade version) . I can receive faxes
with no problems and I can even dial up into my ISP. It is asif my fax
service outgoing does not work. Can anybody help me?

Look at the Fax Service in Administrative Tools > Services
What is its startup type?

Fax queue might be paused/blocked. Can you please ensure that the value of
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fax\QueueState is 0?

Some clarification questions:
Are you able to submit the fax and see it in the outbox?
If there is no action like dialing then check if the modem is configured to
send fax?
Are there any errors in the eventlogs?
Or is there a transmission error?
