I'm not sure if I'm having problems with my modem (56K) or if something else is conflicting with the Com port or if It's some sort of software conflict that's posing the problem I'm experiencing when trying to connect to the Internet.

Here's the problem: I click on my modem icon and it brings up the connect box. After clicking connect I just hear a clicking sound like the modem is trying to dial but can't or something. What I've found out is that if I go into Device Manager and remove the modem and reboot it is located again by Windows 98 SE. It works just find until I shutdown then it's do it all over again.

Any ideas what might be going on? Suggestions?
