What are the basic specifications for your system? Include all installed hardware. You may, or may not, already have a fax modem installed. Please clarify.

All you need to do is install a fax modem like this one:

Connect it to your phone lines and you will be able to send and receive faxes from your PC.

Also, you get a multi-function printer like this one and do the same thing, plus have a scanner/copier/printer:

Good luck!

Assuming, that u have phone service - or your phone line modem is no good. Or u can use Snappy Fax via internet (30days free to try).
